check my bear math

Down to Ole Miss, Kentucky, Vandy and A&M, right? And according to the bears we are the ones that are closer to being a Kentucky. OK.

Second season in the SEC and Missouri is already one up on the rebs. They just keep slipping further down the pecking order...it's heartbreaking...

Not only that, but for all their recruiting (going back to mid-2000's) MSU has been pumping out 2 star NFL draft picks while they squeak a mid-rounder every once in a while.

No offense but I'm more worried about Mizzou knocking us down a notch in the order regardless of us both going to the SEC Championship once.

We now have two teams in the title game who sucked bad last year in the SEC. Not a good thing for us no matter how you slice it.

My personal favorite is their insistence that we went to Atlanta because the SEC was so weak. If so, why didn't they go that year? I'm pretty sure they fielded a team; kind of. Very similar irony to what you hear this year. We are a terrible team, who beat them; but somehow they are still a better team. Right... 4 of the last 5. No trend there...

You won't offend me. This is not the time for rational, logical football discussions. I'm still enjoying the bear excuses for why they aren't actually any good with this whole basketball on grass approach to winning the SEC. At the moment I'm going full bear and latching onto past success to belittle the in state rival. Granted I'm not reaching back to 1960...

Yet last year when we had a "better" season and they beat us they were "better"... give it up. They suck and will always think their academics are the best in the south and that they're a darkhorse for the CWS and BCSNCG (or whatever it will be called from here on). They're one of 3 teams in the conference who hasn't been to Atlanta (one of which JUST joined the SEC) and currently hold the longest streak in the conference of years without a CWS appearance.

They're not even good at having the prettiest girls in the state, but they'll fight to the death trying to convince you they do... despite MSU having Miss Mississippi every single year. That little tidbit is irrelevant.

I'm looking forward to reading what kind of excuse they have for not having a Rhodes Scholar this year.
