Egg Bowl Streak

[615 Guy]

Buddy of mine is attending his 21st straight EB this year which I think is quite impressive. How many EBs in a row have any of you degenerates made?

Most of our fanbase doesn't have the balls to make a trip to Oxford.

For those of you that do, see you Thursday.

One of the more enjoyable things a State fan will ever experience is watching an Egg Bowl win in Oxford.

For those of us there in 2016, it's something we won't forget. It was a fun fun game to witness.

I don’t go because I’d probably end up in jail.

This is the truth.

Then after the win you go out on the town with your rebel friends and family. Listen to them cope by talking about how nice Oxford is. Just nod and agree. It’s the only comfort for their broken souls.

The ones where we win big (like that one) and totally take over their stadium are even better.

Of course, losing in Oxford, especially when we expect to win, is the worst.

 

[GTAdawg]

Last time I went, I got escorted out of the stadium. Will never go back. Was specifically targeted because I had maroon on.

 

[Bruce Dakinson]

Consecutive streak? 4. Yeah. Not impressive, but I'm states away.

Never really had a problem in Oxford. Don't know what you guys are doing wrong.

8 in a row for me this year. Made 26 in a row from 1979-2004. In 2016, sat next to a gentleman and his wife that had been to everyone since 1964!

 

[gymdawg.sixpack]

I was kicked down the endzone stairs b4 security and threatened by a bunch of pricks who had us out numbered about 15 to 2. Ive watched relatives get arrested after wins. I seen cars with windows bashed in and a **** on some dudes hood. I walked thru the grove 1 time and got heckled worse than what youd expect in a rivalry...if 5 of us hadn't had cowbells (weapons) i know a bunch would have fought us.....im sure time has gotten my memory so theres likely more

One of the more enjoyable things a State fan will ever experience is watching an Egg Bowl win in Oxford.

I've been to a few Egg Bowls in Oxford but never have seen State win (2000, 2002 or 2004, 2006, 2014).

In 2014, OM had just lost to Arkansas 30-0, so i bought tickets last minute thinking State would win easily. Thinking of doing that again this year.

Man in Winona is on his 81st consecutive Egg Bowl. He is 92. Served this country in 44 & 45. Left after 44 EB and returned about a week before 45 EB.

I went to 12 out of 13 between 1999 - 2011, missing only the 2008 debacle (which ended up being the greatest thing to ever happen to our football program). 9 straight from 1999 - 2007.

Nashville attorney from Columbus?

 

[HD6]

26, but this will be the first I have to be professional in the pressbox.

 

[dawgstudent]

It will be hard to top 1998

I wish I could say the same. Went to the 2012 and 2014. It sucked. 2014 was particularly nasty. Had some pretty disgusting vitriol spewed at me and my wife. Haven't been back since.

 

[60sdog]

I purposely avoid the EB every year because it’s too tense and not fun at all.

 

[WutheringDawg]

Unfortunately I was there in 08, 14 and 15. Not nearly as fun

 

[BobSacamano]

40 consecutive for me. If I hadn’t missed the ‘78 game, it would be 49 in a row.

I used to enjoy it more, but the last 4 I've been to is 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2017. Three of those were gut punches. It hurts bad to lose to them, especially for me. I wish I could handle it better, but I man I hate losing.

 

[crackerjax]

This will be 26th straight.

I was there. My record in Oxford watching us play is 2-0 and I want to keep it that way. It was a pretty unbelievable three week run for us. We beat Alabama the same day that Arkansas lost to Tennessee and all of a sudden we had a chance to win the West if we won out which of course we did by beating Arkansas and Ole Miss.

I'll never forget "We're going to Georgia!" Or the at least 200 Mississippi Highway patrolmen surrounding the goal posts. That was the game where Col. Reb (this was when Ole Miss had a mascot that wasn't a bear or a shark) ran through the band.

The other one I went to was 1996 and it was a really weird game. We won the game on all defensive scores 17-0 and the field was a complete mud pit. Well, Matt Wyatt scored on a 2 point conversion too.

Sounds like you are bad luck, maybe watch from home.******

 

[vhdawg]

This year is 20 straight for me.

 

[vhdawg]

26, but this will be the first I have to be professional in the pressbox.

I will miss you.

26, but this will be the first I have to be professional in the pressbox.

Finally, the rest of us can have a little room.**

 

[rem101]

1997-2013 minus 2004. 1998 was fun but I was young. Had a blast in 2010 as well.

2008 I was there at kickoff and back at my grandmother's in Madison at the end. 2012 is when I swore off Oxford forever but that might change this year.

 

[o_dawgnabit]

I've been to Oxford twice, 2000 and 2012. After 2012, I'm never going back again. I was in college, had stuff stolen out of our tent. Had a drunk guy scream insults at my little sister which led to things obviously get escalated. So my egg bowl streak is only going to be counted for games in Starkville

 

[BulldogInAggieland]

This is awesome. Anyone around here know how to get this man some recognition?

 

[cowbell88]

I think we honored him last year with a chrome cowbell and a plaque.

 

[PBRME]

I’ve never been to a win in Oxford. The last one I attended was 2000. About as miserable of an experience as it can get. Never again.

 

[bolddogge]

This will be number 40 for me. I was in the 3rd grade my first EB. I was in the end zone during the loss when our kick was blown back through the uprights and was on the 50 during the kick-pick-kick win. Lots of memories.
My son hasn't missed one since his first, which was Croom's last. It was in Oxford and he was 8 years old. Before the kick-off he said "Dad, I don't like this place." I replied "Son, you're wise beyond your years."

 

[MedDawg]

I'm due a win**

Sounds like you are bad luck, maybe watch from home.******

In my 50+ years of life, I've never been and never will go to an athletic event there whether its football, baseball or whatever. I don't miss them anywhere else but I absolutely refuse to travel to where that many pretentious pricks gather in one spot.

 

[Dawg1976]

My last was 1983 when our fg at the end of the game was blown back by high winds. That was enough for me.

 

[snoopdog]

This will be my 26th Egg Bowl over the last 29 years. Last one I missed...

was Ed O's last game in 2007, so 11 straight. Interestingly, the 3 I missed were all won by State... 1993, 1996, 2007. Have only missed 1 in Oxford since being moved back to campus.

Please don't...

Lamar from Starkville, and if you're from Starkville you know Lamar, is going to his 56th straight Egg Bowl tomorrow. Started when he was six. Said his dad saw 45 straight so between them they probably have 70+
