I bet you would too. Its what you average when you play lesser known teams that don't bring many fans that speaks volumes. We were over capacity for a non-conference 1-AA team on home coming and 'The Crock' was only 90% capacity at home coming against a conference foe with a winning record. Thanks again for your interest on OUR board.
So, why are you here again?swacdaddy12 said:thanks for your interest in USM!
swacdaddy12 said:Again congrats on your 45K. We have 30K. And you quit playing plain and simple cause you got that *** beat more times than not in the last 14 years of the series. Only the blindest homer would say different.
That team was a good team but not close to our best team. Congrats on the 2 big wins to end the series! I was there at both as well and state fans and players partied like it was 1999!! They even came out for curtain calls. and I though we didn't matterwhosyourdawgy said:we played your sorry asses with the best team you supposedly had with the hall of fame qb. I hope we get the chance to do the same this season. It would be great to beat the future Black Bear coach this season to get him accustomed to losing to us every year. Ha ha ha ha! Let me get my Tomahawk chop going here. That's what happened the last time I was in The Rock as I was leaving!
Sure they did. I was there too and the place was full. I am sure they were passing them out to every local school for that game. By the way, did you watch our "*** kicking" of them the next year in lincoln on the tube? Good stuff huh!GhostOfJackie said:I was s senior at an area high school that year. I still remember the Southern Miss athletic department giving away free tickets to athletes at my high school. Just trying to fill up the stadium for national television. Thank god I was a soccer player or I would have missed that *** beating.
because that is when you decdied to take your ball and run. If you would have been winning you would have still been playing the game. State demanded home onlyknwoing USM would not except. This was done BEFORE the dogs finally won the last 2 games of the series. Since then state has played home and home vs La tech, Middle TN, UAB, Houston,and others. Good luck in your bowl game!B Rock said:swacdaddy12 said:Again congrats on your 45K. We have 30K.

Why do always bring up the last 14 years of the series. I'm sure we played more than that.
