10. It's free. If you include the parade, the barbecue, the football game, the soccer game, and countless after parties, there are about ten hours of fun for free.
9. You never know what Senate will do. After last year's fiasco, with the property damage and all, Senate may be looking to top it. These guys always have something up their sleeves. What do they have to lose? They already lost their charter.
8. It sets up to be one of the last nice days of the semester. The high is going to be at 70, and no rain in the forecast.
7. If you haven't noticed by now, MSU doesn't compare too well to your television stereotypical college campus. Almost everyone is a commuter, there's no drinking allowed, and anyone who does live on campus, goes home on the weekend. This is one event that shows what true college life should be like.
6. Theta Xi is back. After one year's suspension, and last years exemption from homecoming, Theta Xi, who traditionally does well in the float building competition, is back, and you can bet they're hungry.
5. The theme for this year's talent show is "Once Upon a Homecoming." An original theme is going to bring out a bunch of original performances.
4. Pike is coupled with the Dance department for this year's homecoming competition. Traditionally, a fraternity and sorority pair up, but Pi Kappa Alpha, went against the norm. With the fairy tale theme, all I can think of is hot and sexy ballerinas in tights, oh my!
3. Jamar Neal from O.S.A.U. and Amanda Palasciano from Sigma Delta Phi were crowned home coming king and queen last year. Who will be this year's winner? Find out at the end of the football game on Saturday.
2. MSU football has won three straight and are playing conference rival Kean University at Sprague Field, at 3 p.m. The Red Hawks are 3 - 1 and Kean is 1 - 4. MSU is looking to make their season with a victory and Kean wants to save their season, and avoid the loss. Should be a good one.
1. The top reason why you should be at homecoming is to cheer on the men's soccer team who boast a 9 -1 - 2 record, as well as one of the best defenses in the nation. They square off against Villa Julie from Maryland at Pittser Field, starting at 1:00 p.m. These guys are looking to make a playoff run and solidify the Sentowski regime.
