Don't let facts get in the way of believing that our nickname came from something that ended HALF A CENTURY earlier.
Yeah, it makes so much sense that it came from a term that would not even have been used by people of this era.

Y'all are named after a train from the early 1900s?

Regardless of the team name, Bo Wallace has been dubbed "Miss Piss" for rest of the season.

Internal strife on how to treat people is from a bygone era, yet . . . something about shoes fitting or whatever.

So it's Black Bears, Rebels and Trains? Y'all are tied with Auburn for schizophrenic nicknames.

Even if the train story was true it's still assuming that the students got it from that. It's all the university could dig up trying to change where it came from. We know where it really came from. Not flaming, just being honest.

So the annual named ole miss for 5-10years before a picture of a train named "Old Miss" and changed to Ole Miss is the genesis of the University name?
I am buying!
