Sorry you couldn't win any of the 10 more you've played than Ole Miss.

Only 3 less than Auburn and the same as A&M. Interesting. 5 less than Florida.

Most of Ole Miss' bowls were before 1980. Since then UF,Auburn, and A&M have racked up. Since integration OM has played in 16 bowls and State 15. Most of OM's bowls took place before facemasks. However,Ole Miss is 12-3 during the "Integration Era" bowls, and that is impressive.

I guess it's easier to win when you're playing in the weedwhacker bowl every year.

Actually, we've played in more Sugars (eight) than any other bowl, with a 5-3 record (BTW Floida, UGA, and LSU all have sub-500 records in the Sugar).

Next most common bowls for us have been five Cotton Bowls (4-1, with wins over Texas Tech, TCU and Okie State (twice); and five Indy Bowls (4-1, with wins over Oklahoma, Nebraska, and Texas Tech (twice).

Yeah, it's been a long time since our golden days, but we still have been 9-1 in bowls since the 97 season, which includes the worst period in Ole Miss history.

For the sake of LSU fans proclaiming the "fewer" bowls argument, I went back and looked at the last 35 bowls that LSU played. The results were surprising.

19-16 54%.

The other 10 didn't help. 4-5-1

LSU has had more opportunities to win bowl games, yet they have as many bowl wins as Ole Miss. Hmmmmmm

All but one of them, including our 21-0 win over LSU.

On iPhone. Meant 50. I know OM played in a bunch of Sugar Bowls from 1950-1960 right?

One thing I noticed was that LSU lost to Baylor in a bowl game in 1985
