The Ron Polk era at MSU is coming to an end. This weekend will be Polk’s last weekend to coach at Dudy Noble Field. MSU fans, alumni, and students are invited to come and pack Polk-Dement Stadium to thank Polk for his 29 years at MSU.

Plan to be there May 15th at 6:30pm, May 16th at 6:30pm and May 17th at 3pm. MSU will be taking on SEC rival Arkansas.
