Some of you kids on here that make light of OM-LSU rivalry should click on this link. It covers some of the wonderful history of the rivalry.

quote:

They are all old men now in their 60s and 70s, no longer with flat bellies and thick hair, but instead with body parts that mysteriously hurt.

But every year when LSU and Ole Miss get together for their annual football throwdown – this Saturday’s get-together in Baton Rouge is the 99th game in the series – they take a mental sip from the fountain of youth.

Just for a moment, they are 20 years old again, strapping on their gold and their blue helmets, they are Tigers and Rebels playing in the greatest college football rivalry of its era.

In that game, LSU's Y.A. Tittle intercepted a Charlie Conerly pass and had his belt buckle ripped off. Tittle ran as far as he could holding his pants with one hand before they drooped to his knees and he was tackled

I agree with Colonel Black Bear.

The Ole Miss rivalry is still a huge rivalry. As long as Ole Miss is in the SEC...this game matters.

And to all the smug Tiger fans out there...LSU hasn't dominated the Colonel Bears like we have MS State.

I'm impressed Colonel, you are busy busy this week reminding everyone of the rivalry. You're on here every time I get on.

Dude, why are you still trying to convince everyone that this is a rivalry? The great majority of fans don't think it is. Miss St. IS your rival.

It ain't what it use to be, but more LSU fans go to Oxford than any other away game.

Must not be that big of a deal if you are having to try so hard to remind everyone that it is.

Have you noticed that it's Ole Piss fans always posting that this matters?

Colonel F-u-b-a-r, of course it still matters as long as they keep score in the game and the evil from North Mississippi is still creeping about.

I agree. My dad loved the rivalry between Old Miss and LSU. Grew up hating Old Miss.

False. I'd say Bama and AU over Oxford.
