We’ve made their lives hell for a long time when it comes to college football. It’s just the way it is. So they are naturally obsessing a little bit over this game.

Geaux to hell OM!!!


i think its obvious that you are projecting how LSU fans are feeling onto us Rebel fans. Fact is,us Ole Miss fans are feeling and behaving exactly the same as we always have the week of the game with our biggest rival, whether our team is limping into the game with a 3-4 record or 7-0 with a top 10 ranking...
you know what i think? i think LSU fans arent comfortable with the red and blue being in the position of relevancy that we have enjoyed for the past couple years, with Sugar Bowls,top 10 rankings, and national championships in baseball...while their teams are unranked and completely irrelevant...

So LSU is a bigger rival than your in-state SEC rival State. Come on?

As for football, OM has an excellent coach, a good QB (signed with USC out of HS), 2 good RB's and a Defense that is playing better than any OM team I have seen since some of Freeze's teams (which were good teams).

I think LSU fans, the ones I talk to, see this as another challenging SEC game, and to be honest, with less tension in fact than what LSU has with Florida which has had more heated emotion, with some bad feelings even up to the Administration level, the last 15 to 20 years than any other LSU game.

So my first reaction to this is surprise. I honestly didn't know Ole Miss made it to a sugar bowl. That's cool. Is that the game Baylor won?

The baseball championship surprised me too. I remember state winning theirs, but I guess I kinda just blend in state and Ole Miss together a lot.

Even living in Mississippi, it's hard to care enough to pay attention to either team, but congrats.

Completely irrelevant? Its as if OM fans just tell themselves this and it must be true! Have you just forgotten the fact that if we beat you Saturday we’re all tied for first place in the west? Your shitty schedule you can’t hide behind much longer. Did you also know that the only five teams left to control their own destiny are UGA, Tennessee, Bama, OM and yes, LSU!! We have everything to play for and you better pray to God that Daniels doesn’t light it up like he did last Saturday. That was easily the best quarterback performance I’ve seen by an LSU quarterback not named Burrow in a really long time.
