I actually am a ole miss grad and have several degrees from there and even played football for them one spring. My dad was a booster/bagman and Archie manning actually used to play around with me and my friends when I was little as we lived next to them in student housing when I was small. The ole miss assistant coaches used to stay at my house when they recruited the coast. But I also lived for a decade in Baton Rouge my brother, brother n law, grandfather and probably 20-30 cousins nephews uncles etc all played at LSU.

When my dad was a booster and Jackie sherill was at state things were bad but no one would rat anyone out. And my Dad hated Jackie for using all that racist shite against ole miss. Believe it or not most of the ole miss and state booster knew each other and were friendly rivals.

Maybe just me but I never hated state or considered them a rival. They are just the argicultral engineering school down the road.
They are no threat to ole miss. Ole Miss has and always will run the state of Mississippi, much more than LSU runs Louisiana or even the machine runs Bama.

Do you live under a rock? Since the 80's most of the top players in MS have chosen State over OM. Sure, OM has their areas, South Panola, that they control, but State has controlled most of the state. Ole Miss has recruited better out of state(we know why-$$$$$$), and that has been their strategy since the 80's. Try to get a few in state kids and combine them with out of staters. MSU is almost exclusively MS kids. Look at the rosters.

It's ok to pretend. It's considered an art form. You're an artist
