Huge game but the 2003 LSU game was understood if we win then we win the west, beating Alabama wouldn't guarantee that.

A top 10 matchup probably hasn't happened in Oxford since Vaught was the head coach here. No bullshite.

How is it gonna be bigger? Has seating been expanded somehow?

Ole Miss played many of its games in Jackson and Memphis before Vaught-Hemingway was expanded. In retrospect it was probably a mistake not to expand VHS sooner. BTW, one of the most significant Top Ten matchups during the Vaught Era occurred in 1952 when Ole Miss beat #1-ranked Maryland, 21-14 in Oxford. In fact, that victory began the most successful period of Vaught's coaching--one with many Sugar and Cotton Bowl appearances, as well as SEC and National Titles.

Throws a lot of money at the program. She complains about how all of this stuff should have started back then rather in recent years.

Yea - same with Alabama and Legion Field until the late 90's.
