I never said it wasnt business savvy. The fact that it is a good business move is my point. If marketing obsession of another school is a "smart business move" then your fans are obsessed people.
Ahh the whole State is obsessed with Mississippi deal. As if it doesn't work both ways.
I think it is a small part of both fan bases that blows this whole thing out of proportion.
Honestly, what is there to be obsessed over? Both Athletic programs are bottom of the barrell in the SEC. Academics wise, both Schools have a few programs that are solid, as a whole, both lag behind in the SEC. Could go on and on.

It doesn't.
Find me a marketing campaign put on by Ole Miss which relied on the "obsession" of our fan base with your school and the perceived differences between the two to be successful?
Basically, what is the Ole Miss equivalent of "Welcome to our State?" What is the Ole Miss equivalent of "The People's University?"

Because ours are a little better. Not enough that you cant argue like say LSU vs OM, but just enough that you can convince yourselves that with an x factor/wildcard event, you could be the flagship.
But back on point. Your posters are admitting that its smart to market obsession. How the hell are you going to say that your fan base isnt obsessed with OM when your marketing plans are all aimed at OM. All your message boards talk more about OM than our own message boards.
