Bama fans and alumni have things to tie their pretentiousness to. Mississippi State has not won a single national championship in any NCAA sanctioned sport in their entire 120 year existence, and their university routinely ranks dead last in the SEC academically by every measurable analysis.

But fans who did not attend the school being assholes about it is the problem.

Mississippi State (and Ole Miss) routinely ranks dead last in the SEC academically because the federal courts killed the admission standards. They were both middle of the pack academically (higher than Alabama) prior to the Ayers decision.

The Ayers decision stated that all public universities in MS had to have the same admission standards. Since the HBCUs require a pulse to get in, so does State and Ole Miss. This brings down the average GPA and ACT of freshmen, a metric used in these rankings. These losers flunk out of State and Ole Miss within a year, which brings down retention, another metric used.

Alabama and Auburn would be the same way if the feds tied a millstone to their necks like they did MSU and Ole Miss, and you know it.

Personally, my degree from MSU prepared me well. Much better than not going to Alabama and feeling better about the football team.

You're pretentious because of a sports team?
