[QUOTE="doneagain, post: 130982679, member: 1396145"] In my lifetime, Miss State and Ole Miss have been typically less than successful programs, moreso mississippi state than ole miss. When Freeze was let go at Ole Miss and Mullen bailed for Florida, I was pretty sure that would bring both back to reality. I was stationed in Meridian for a while, and I liked Mississippi as a state. It is a shame they have to face off against the likes of Bama, LSU, Texas A&M and Auburn every year. They just can’t seem to consistently compete resource-wise with those programs. Most of the elite athletes in Mississippi appear to go out of state. Back when the BCS was still alive, I thought the Big East would have been a good competitive option for the Mississippi schools. I enjoyed our two-game series with State. They could never have afforded the pay cut to leave the SEC, but it would have been good for them as far as win totals go. [/QUOTE]
