If Ole Miss wins the next 20 in a row... Then the answer will change to LSU. But not until then. Sorry

Damn I was almost starting to like you as a poster. I went on the field just to do it after that game. It's not every year you get to experience being on the field with the players. I don't care who we beat, if people start going on the field I'm following along

The pictures in the OP prove that to be false.


I'm sure Ole Miss fans would react similarly if LSU came to town with an unblemished record late in October with dreams of a perfect season and still high on the fumes from beating Bama.

Ending your perfect season was our season.

We know it and you know it.

It's all we'll remember.

No one in Baton Rouge remembers anything about 1959 other than Billy Cannon's run. I'm pretty sure we didn't play Tennessee the next weekend or have to play Ole Miss in the original Mulligan Bowl. There was only 7-3.

And in 2014, there will only be 10-7. Nothing else noteworthy happened that year.

Those pictures are also taken at completely different times, notice the student section is just starting to spill onto the field. The shite isn't rocket science man, even if this is a lame troll

Your players, coaches and equipment are all off of the field in the first picture and so are ours. It wasn't taken right after the game.

That's kind of the point I'm trying to make. People like yourself can admit that the only reason this past season wasn't a total failure was because you beat Ole Miss. Other crazier fans won't ever admit that beating Ole Miss was the key to a season not being completely lost. Lord knows there's been plenty of seasons where that was the case with us when we beat you guys

I thought the same but I found a video that appears to confirm Ole Miss barely rushed the field relative to LSU/Ole Miss 2014, LSU/Arkansas 2014 and Ole Miss/Bama 2014.

Granted the video is only 16 seconds but I don't see many fans itching to get on the field in the video.

Maybe they were as shocked as the rest of us that they pulled off the upset.

The win over Wisconsin was nice but Ohio State made that win look rather puny after they curbstomped them 59-0. Besides we know Melvin Gordon was beasting us before he disappeared most of the 2nd half.

And beating Aggy has become rather stale.

So yeah, the Ole Miss game is the only true victory of the year. It's a no brainer.

I'll throw this in this thread since I only recently learned the rest of the story and I was talking about the 1959 game earlier in this thread.

Pretty damn awesome story:

quote:

Geaux to Hell Ole Miss

When LSU is playing their rival, Ole Miss, LSU fans shout "Geaux to Hell Ole Miss. Geaux to hell" frequently, and signs with the same saying can be seen throughout the stadium. Ole Miss fans typically respond with "Go to hell, LSU!" Legend has it this was started prior to the 1959 contest when Coach Paul Dietzel, trying to motivate his troops, hired a plane to litter the LSU campus with flyers saying, "Go to Hell, LSU!"

When word of this reached Oxford, Johnny Vaught, not to be outdone, responded in kind by littering the Ole Miss campus with flyers saying, "Go to Hell, Ole Miss!" Saturday night, 30 minutes prior to kickoff, Tiger Stadium was already packed with the crowd split down the middle between Tigers and Rebels. Each set of fans were shouting at the top of their lungs to the other, "Go to Hell!" The tradition has stuck ever since.


From the comments here but if you Google you'll find the story in a few places:

This post is honest and accurate. If the names were flipped in the exact scenario, Ole Miss fans would've reacted the same way. Hell, it's happened in the past numerous times.

You can regularly hear someone yell Go to Hell LSU at ole miss baseball games when they are playing different teams. I get that people just yell it out to be funny but it's still kind of strange. I always laughed along with others when I heard it though, all in good fun

And to this day, there's always a lot of Ole Miss fans that will yell "Go to hell LSU!" during the national anthem and not just at football games. It happens at baseball games almost every game

It used to just be one guy that would do it and the entire stadium would erupt.

I don't either. It was shorter than "the Ole Miss-LSU game" in the title. That was the reason for putting it
