In the SEC, here is what I know of off the top of my head:

Ole Miss:

Bob Dylan - OxfordTown
Billy Joel - We Didn't Start the Fire

Alabama:

Steely Dan - Deacon Blues

Ugliest building - the Ole Miss Student Union - is now getting some lipstick on a pig:









Prettiest building on campus - Ventress Hall:

Congrats to Mississippi State! They played their arse off when it matters, rises up when adversity strikes as opposed to OM, and deserved to make it to Omaha.

Rebel Women's Tennis senior Arianne Hartono wins the singles individual national championship today in Winston-Salem.



Champs

Maybe 50-60 years ago but not now.
State has pulled past Ole Miss in the last 40+ years.
Stadiums are both nice and with the Junction, State has a very nice tailgating center right next to the stadium. State’s campus is much better manicured and landscapes than Ole Miss.
In my earlier post, I stated the difference in the series record was between 1947-1973 when Ole Miss had a 21-2-4 record against State. Otherwise the series is basically even.

State lost 19 wins and had two ties fortified between 1975-77 because of a bogus probation given to us when a football player got a clothing discount at a store that was available to all students.
Otherwise we are over .500 all time on the field.
Granted Ole Miss is ahead of us all time mainly because of the 1950’s-60’s.

On many other levels academically and otherwise, State has passed Ole Miss in the recent decades. Also, in the other Big 2, baseball and basketball, we are far superior to them.


Ole Miss is the better program.

State has certainly improved in the past twenty years, but they had a lot of ground to make up for it. Ole Miss' lulls were never as bad as State's.

Both schools would benefit from focusing less on comparing each other and more on trying to compete at a national level.

Billy Brewer was simply a legend. Growing up in the early 90s, he was the first head coach I ever knew. He was a huge Ole Miss Rebel, and I hate that the University did him wrong for so long. If you thought the rivalry between Mullen and Freeze was heated, the Brewer vs. Sherrill era was so much more intense.

The guy was also probably the all-time best sideline dresser. The Game hats, red pants, Billy Dog was fratty.









Script M

It's time to make the Script M hat above our new baseball hat.

Block M needs to go, and this is a look that looks completely unique to Ole Miss in college athletics.
You've caught a break from the NCAA, SEC, and in-game officiating since the early 2000s.
