And C34, why do you and the Ole Miss Rebelettes automatically assume that Nutts is going to continue to dominate MSU? It's not like he has a magical wand and waves it everytime he gets ready to play us. Just because he has left Arkansas doesn't mean he will carry his luck over to red town.

The Egg Bowl is ALWAYS a toss-up. Just like any other rivalry game.

You call this luck:

The only one point game was in 1998 and State won that one. In fact, Nutt beat your two best teams in recent history in 1999 and 2000. Now, he may not be the best coach around, but if State hired a coach that was 9-1 against Ole Miss, it'd worry me.

Does state hiring Cohen worry you? You know since he has beaten Bianco everywhere he has gone? That argument is ridiculous

that Arkansas has far better facilities than OM. And they do. Across the board. The point wasn't whether or not it's possible to win at a school with lesser facilities. It's that Nutt has less of pretty much everything at Ole Miss than at Arkansas, where he often underachieved anyway.

I understand that MSU fans tend to get a bit wooly on this site.....but it is a MSU message board. I dont understand why the naffoomers get so surprised to see that posters make favorable statements about MSU here. I for one could care less what they talk about over at naffoom (i imagine it involves lots of overblown praise of Snead/Nutt). It all comes down to this: Ole Miss and STATE will both be doing very well to win 6-7 games this year. And in order to do so one will have to beat the other. Because the game is in Oxford, the edge goes to them. However, i will say that it is easier to see a scenario where STATE is bowling despite losing that game than it is to see Ole Miss bowling with a loss to STATE.

It is because the last few years we have sucked and these OM fans have been able to come over here and bash MSU with MSU fans and not have any argument. of course they loved that. They hate the fact that MSU had a successful season, and they cannot find the same group of people bashing State. Except for C34 of course who is just a babbling idiot

It seems that Georgia quickly became a trendy choice after not getting the nod at the end of last season. They are very good, but my pick would be Florida as well. They have a couple of unbelievable recruiting classes that are now pretty seasoned and should have a great deal of chemistry. Meyer may be the best coach in college football and Tebow is certainly the best quarterback. Florida has amazing speed and always gets to play Georgia 'at home'.</p>

Also, Georgia needs to 'quit breaking the law A-hole' because they are losing some key players....</p>

That since LSU is the only real rival of Ole Miss....all of these naffoomers would go and talk **** on the LSU boards. Especially with the new exciting bowl they created for the matchup. Seems like they should be arguing about whether LSU/Ole Miss wins the SEC not who ends up finishing 5th in the west. I guess if they went over to the LSU boards they would probably find people who wouldn't care to respond ( like the La tech guys that have come onto this board).

How can you logically make a claim that Nutt underachieved in anyway at Ark? Would you consider going to 20% of the SEC championship games underachieving? What about 5 or 6? (can't remember) New year's day bowls? What would he have to do to make you say he did a good job or overachieved? Does he need to go to Atlanta 4 times in ten years? I mean come on it's *%!$%!$ Arkansas? Not Auburn or LSU. He never finished last in the West with only 1 5th place finish. Exactly what did he need to do to not "underachieve"?

If I remember correctly, it looked like UGA had a ton of players suspended for the opener against...Georgia Southern.

This is the sole reason why I think every major school should try to schedule a D-1AA school for its opener. You need a freebie game to be able to use to suspend your players that messed up in the off-season.

I still believe that Croom probably would've suspended Pegues and Co. in 2006 for the opener if you weren't opening with a swing SEC game against South Carolina at home. If you had been playing Murray State, they'd have probably sat out as punishment.

Always open with a cupcake to take care of your off-season discipline without costing yourself a game. Georgia may be playing with the scout team by the time that opener rolls around, but they'll still beat Georgia Southern and not ruin their chances at a national title by disciplining players.

were all very close games that almost came down to the last play or overtime. We won 1 of 6 of those. There was probably a little bit of luck involved. However, they won them. All SECW coaches had a good record against us from 2001-06 so that's a wash. Hell, we didn't win a SECW game in 2002, 03, or 04 and the only SECW team we beat from 2001-05 was UM twice. Nutt has proven himself but I don't fear what he did at Ark against MState. I simply think he will do a pretty good job. He will not have as good as record as he did at Ark.

we fired a coach who was slightly above 500 and headed down the toilet. for whatever reason, cutcliffe had quit or failed at recruting after his first class or two.. you do remember his 4-7 final campaign? i equate cut to sloan,,, his first group of assistants was outstanding but as he lost them, he couldn't replace them and he wasn't up to the job himself.

He had good years, but also several years where they finished below the talent level of their team. Even if last year had been the only one, it was bad enough to question whether or not he was that great of a coach.

OM has a larger stadium. OM has a new state of the art IPF weight room, training room, lounge etc. OM has a brand new academic center. These are not opinions. These are facts. It is also a fact that MSU does not havethese things. So let me know when I'm giving an opinion?
Yes, you have the larger stadium. State also has a state of the art IPF, weight room, training room, and lounge. State's academic center is currently under construction. Any other facts you want to give us?

Yeah these are equal.
