I personally like how Jevan Snead won a cotton bowl while finishing second in the west. A feat that Manziel could never accomplish.
Pretty good. My favorite way to poke an Ole Miss fan is to mention how they have NEVER beaten us, and that even MSU has beaten us before.
Almost gave my 85 year old grandfather and Ole Miss fan a conniption fit last year.

Their team board is so insane. I read it one night and it was staggering. They have some seriously insane posters that are probably incredibly easy to rile up

Can we all agree that Georgia fans are the easiest to make cry? Their list of material is staggering.
You mean other than our wonderful hosts here at the Rant?

If you had beaten us 10+ times I would be mad about that. As it stands now I was just really pissed the way that we lost to y'all the past two times, not that we haven't beaten you before.

Non sequitur.
I've been here for years, and I can't recall ever having become "riled up."
I honestly can't say it enough (and I've learned from this thread that most of you genuinely don't get it): Y'all think we are ashamed of those things you choose--like a torch & pitchfork-wielding mob--to ridicule.
On the contrary, most of us would die protecting what those things stand for.
Gig'em.

I agree with that
but I've witnessed some UF fans go full tard/mad when I mentioned how they travel like shite and were all fairweather fans
one guy literally had UF and FSU gear that he'd sometimes combine
I mean come on. And this is when I was interning at UF, and he was a student.

I don't think any of you legitimately like the yell leaders, regardless of what you might say.
Posted on 6/4/14 at 4:15 pm to OBReb6
I think most are like me, they really don't care. you take them away? fine. you keep them? fine

And that's where you're wrong.
If you knew the history behind them, you'd probably understand better.
I'm certainly not saying you'd embrace the tradition, but the pre-pubescent "fig" stuff would likely be minimized.
It's all good.

That's kinda what I'm saying. Not that anyone despises them, just that they're too much of a burden to like

I don't view them as a burden. I just view it that them being there or not doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things when it comes to our athletic program
yes I know that sentence murders the English language

Yall are just hard to rile up period. In fact, I would say Ole Miss fans are THE hardest fans to troll.
You simply take on everything and then bash yourselves even harder. Your biggest hook you take and rebait it better than we can.
I blame it on never getting double digit wins against Bama.
Actually that isn't true. The black bear thing does still piss off some fans.

See that's just it: You don't have to like em.
Just know it's something with deep-rooted history, and let that be it.
Different strokes, ya know?
I've been very surprised at how vehemently SEC fans seem to want everyone/all schools to be the same.
Prior to joining the league, I actually thought the opposite was true--and it was one of the reasons I respected the cadre of schools.
I've since learned otherwise.
That said, we'll continue with our ****y ways.

When you've been publicly flogged over being the worst kind of people for decades, over issues that directly have negative impacts on being able to compete in this conference athletically, you learn to take things in stride.

I like them. It sends a clear message.
"We are not here to stare at pussy in our binoculars. We are here to chant out exact statements simultaneously like a large Catholic service."
Plus if you take away the yell leader to please some people, maybe they also take out the parts I love about a game (like the song NMoK). So frick it change nothing.
