re: tOfficial Egg Bowl Week Thread

Never met the man, so I wouldn’t know him.

Bro Schtate was in the news just a couple weeks ago for a student yelling antisemitic slurs at Dave Portnoy.

The name of your school is, quite literally, short form for "the slavemaster's wife."

Your coaches had to beg your admin to make you all stop singing dixie and waving rebel flags. It's why the reddest of Mississippi rednecks loved them some ole miss.

Starkville had one dumbass kid say something stupid because social media algorithms got to his head. The positive publicity far outweighed one blip on the radar.

Yikes.

Grab a cold chicken finger, head to your Lane Kiffin effigy and sit this one out bud.

Last time Ole Miss stormed the field was after beating #2 Georgia in 2024.

State stormed the field after beating a Skataboo-less Arizona state.

Just to juxtapose the 2 programs.

But let's unpack the 2014 Egg Bowl.

That was, unquestionably, the best football team in your school's putrid football history. But they were still beaten by two scores by an Ole Miss team that was, likewise unquestionably, reeling and absolutely decimated by injuries. Bo Wallace was limping throughout the game and we were missing our best offensive weapon, LaQuon Treadwell. But, despite all that, we still put up 500+ yards of total offense on your little candy asses, and kept y'all from what would have been a very undeserved playoff bid (which 8-win team was your best win that season? Auburn, LSU, or A&M ).

Also, also! That game gave us this excellent gif!



Look at your little golden facemasks and golden numbers. So cute.

fuuuuuuuccccckkkk y'all

I’m like 95% sure this is from that long Jaylen Walton run in the 2014 egg bowl

(Not salty)

How about when Jeff Simmons punched a woman in the face repeatedly and was suspended for the first half of Schtate's game against South Alabama, which Schtate lost!

Dan Mullen didn't even have the decency to coach that game in pants, FFS!

You know what's not a play on words?

Being the slavemaster's wife.

The facts show the nickname was chosen in a contest. While you are free to speculate on hypothetical racism, it would be better for you to focus on what exists in reality, such as Schtate's very real and recent history of antisemitism. I mean, come on man, that antisemitic attack on a Jewish celebrity was just two weeks ago!

Dan Mullen and Mississippi state changed that baws life! Simmons is a walking, breathing example of how a university rooted in decency can reform almost anyone. Now he is a honorable member of society, unlike Greg Hardy who did his woman beating post-college. Thanks ole miss!
