It is amazing how serious these fellas take this week. It is their Super Bowl.

I never really gave a rats arse about this game growing up or when in college. I only started caring about it once you see how trashy the ole miss fan base is.

My coworkers/friends can never keep LSU off their minds. We are big brother. We are the gold standard in athletics.

They stoop to new lows each day like trashing Kyren Lacy’s death.

I truly hope LSU goes out and whoops arse. Step on their throat and don’t let up….

1-0

A billion years ago when I went to LSU, Ole Miss is where you went if You didn’t get the grades to get into LSU. It pretty much had a student body made up of rich rednecks and New Orleans/Baton Rouge private school kids. Fast forwarding to now it’s a lot of kids from up north and trendy liberal southern rich kids. Heard from some friends back home that Louisiana kids are going there due to F King Alexander bringing in students to LSU that had no business getting accepted. UNO with a football team is how they put it.

A billion years ago (through the 1980s) , LSU was open admissions.

Before 1990, LSU was legally required to accept any Louisiana resident who wanted to attend, who had a high school diploma or GED. This was a state law for all public universities in Louisiana, and why they all offered remedial classes until the allowance of minimum standards in 2005.

That's a lot of words to not say anything very clearly.

Edited to correct my date, relied on an AI answer, dumb mistake. It was not 2005 but 1989 when the law was changed,

It really is impressive for the fan base that likes to pretend they are the definition of class. They think they are better people than everyone else because they hang chandeliers from tailgating tents.

When I was an undergrad at LSU in the early seventies, the requirements to get into Ole Miss were much stricter than they were to get into LSU. During that time period it was claimed that kids who couldn't get into Ole Miss went to Miss. State. Most of us believed that crap because the Ole Miss fans usually attended the games wearing suits. It was funny watching the Ole Miss fans in their suits waving their rebel flags when the Ole Miss band played Dixie. back then, the LSU and Ole Miss game was a heated rivalry game. I still have horrible thoughts about what Archie Who did to LSU in Jackson back in '69. Living on campus, the Go To Hell Ole Miss week was a blast.

They are somehow under the impression that putting a blue blazer on a red neck somehow gives that red neck class.

You also needed at least a 21 or 22 on the ACT for acceptance. I think I remember that right.

Well whoever told you this is full of shite. There were plenty of kids that didn’t get into LSU in the late 90s early 2000s.


LSU was a core 2.0 plus test scores. A school like SLU was any grades and any test scores, but you would have to take 0 level classes if your grades weren’t good.

The 3 annual opponents they gave us all have LSU circled as their Super Bowl. Trashy losers

State fans are a much cooler, laid back bunch. Living in North MS, I much prefer them.

I’ve got some Ole Myth friends who are good natured and I can talk back and forth with. But I’ve got a family member and some others I know from work and have met other places who I just laugh at. They really think Oxford is the center of the universe.
