Egg Bowl drama involves FBI

FBI investigating threatening letter sent to Ole Miss | Dr. Saturday - Yahoo Sports

Maybe it is time for everybody to remember that this is just a game......
I have also noticed that many of the most "spirited" haters have no real association with their chosen school. (From reading the letter, I am convinced that the sender is NOT a graduate of Mississippi State) If these folks put as much energy into getting a degree from their "chosen" school as they do in running down "the other school", Mississippi would truly benefit.

Just something to think about.........

We got that email Tuesday night, its sad and has got to the point that folks calling themselves fans have put a very bad light on college sports. Its all schools, went to my last college basketball game when I was at State and as the announcer called out the starting line up for the visiting team, as each name was called the home crowd yelled "SUCKS!!!" Enuff for me, sportsmanship is quickly becoming a thing of the past and I blame coaching for 99% of it.

It's amazing how much importance a 1.25 sticker from Fred's can give you(JADA) . Hope they find the source and nail him/her to the wall . regardless which school they attend or dream about .The "GAME" should be what it is, a game . Would someone text me the halftime score as I will be in my deer stand ?lol

Pure silliness

I have been an Ole Miss fan since the 50's. I could tell you which High School each player went to and what their number was. One of the few ,on this board, that actually rode the "Cannonball Express" to see Ole Miss Play LSU. It was Billy Canon's only claim to fame.

I saw Jimmy Lear,anyone remember him, & Ole Miss beat Maryland when Maryland was the Number 1 team in the nation. Jack Scarbath was Maryland's All American quarterback.

It has come to the point where I just don't identify with college football any longer. Too much dancing and too much disrespect and, like Rees Guide said, not enough sportsmanship

I do, however, look at the scores.

Go Rebels....

Truly sad. It's either a stupid. State fan or an Ole Moss fan trying to make State look bad for the selection committee for the playoffs. No telling cause there's idiots on both sides

Where is Ole Moss? [emoji1]

Same place as the GREEN cup spelling.

Whoever the "fan" is, it is without question they are not welcome at either school. Find him and punish him.

That wouldn't surprise me DD and if it were the case it would show how classless and truly ignorant folks have become. I will be proud of the Bears if they win but am not gonna cry if they get their tails whooped (which they prolly will), this will give State a true shot at a National Championship.

I don't think it was a threat. With the price of tix, there will be lots of Dawgs hanging out drinking in the grove, unable to get in the game. With that many Dawgs peeing on the bushes and trees, damage is bound to happen. :-)

Our state rivalry is the South Carolina-Clemson game. I have observed the same thing here. The loudest, crudest, "fans" never set foot on either campus as a student and probably could not pass the entrance exam at either school. I (South Carolina fan) will be playing golf tomorrow with 3 Clemson fans(all grads) and we have never had more than a friendly jab at each other and always in good spirit and fun. It is, after all, just a game.

I know what you are talking about. my 3 best buds from high school (and still today) are MSU grads. I am an Ole Miss grad. Other than some good natured poking and prodding, no real issues. Some of my "friends" who did not graduate from either, on the other hand, become possessed by some kind of football demon at this point every year.

I am all about supporting your "chosen" school, but do it in a constructive way... Take a class, send your child to school there, join the alumni association, donate to a scholarship fund, heck...go down to the quad/drill field/grove early one morning before final exams and hand out hot cocoa to the students. That will mean a lot more in the long run than whoever wins a ballgame.

What time is the game today so I can set the recorder?

2:30 I think. Not sure. I decided to go to the movie with my wife this afternoon. The outcome of my "date" will have a greater impact on my life than the outcome of the game.

There are some that think buying a shirt gives them the right to do harm in the name of "us". Whoever "us" is that day. Think Harvey Updike. Doubt an alumni or true fan would ever consider it
