We won the SEC West in 2003 along with LSU, just like Florida and UGA both won the East last year. There is a tiebreaker to play in the championship game but that doesn't affect the divisional championships.
If Ole Miss hung a banner for every year they didn't even play in the SEC championship, how many banners would they have?
Hint*
There have been 21 SEC Championship Games

He is from Independence, MS. I am sure he has a lot more dumb tweets ahead of him.

I think the banner is lame as frick, but do you disagree with what it says?

UGA has one too. It's right inside the front door at the Butts Mehere Heritage Hall.... 
ETA:... Ole Miss was never ranked higher than second place in the AP or coaches' poll those three years. So they are bullshite...

Go back and look at the rules and the results. LSU shared the West in 2003. They did not win it outright.

CO-Divisional Championship
The SEC has been split into two divisions since the 1992 season with Ole Miss competing in the SEC West since that time. Ole Miss has won a share of 1 CO-divisional title, but has yet to make an appearance in the SEC Championship Game. Ole Miss is currently the only school that has placed a banner in its stadium commemorating a Co-Divisional Championship that did not result in a SEC Championship Game appearance.

They got a trophy for winning the West in 03, just like we got one for the East last year.
It's lame, but hardware is hardware.

I know. I saw it earlier and was embarrassed.

What's your point? I said the banner was lame as frick. However, it says we were co-divisional champions.. which is true.

So not only has the trophy been awarded since 1986, but the retroactive trophies to 1950 wouldn't include Ole Miss because they've never finished #1 in a coaches' poll.

No, what it says is factually accurate. If I were an Ole Miss fan, however, I'd cringe every time I saw it because it screams mediocrity and low expectations.

I thought the point was self-evident. If you need it made explicit though, Ole Miss is the only school to raise a banner for a co-divisional title that did not result in an SECCG appearance. The implication is that that is sad. /explication

The only trophy they got was the FWAA one in 1960.

You know it's bad if it's something Miss St won't even stoop to.

Well, I guess that, and my ancillary point that you aren't very good at discerning what point is being made based on a bolded passage. So two points, really.

Would you be embarrassed if UF hung one of these in the stadium?
