Didn't a combined 90 points in that Georgia-LSU game look a little strange for a Southeastern Conference matchup? Well, it was. Not only had no game involving an SEC team this season totaled more than 72 points, but the shootout in Baton Rouge was only the fifth conference game in the 76-year history of the SEC -- and first since 1995 -- to get to 90 points in regulation.</p>

MSU was a part of the highest scoring game in SEC history. I have forgotten what an offense is.

If that's incorrect, they've gotta be making up the MSU score as well!!!!

That season saw...

Alabama: 59
Ole Miss: 35

And...

Mississippi State: 6
Alabama: 3

That's amazing.

the Aubs call them that to piss them off (we have the University of Alabama in Hsv or UAH, here in Hsv).

can you believe we played our last four games in 1980, arguably the best season MSU has ever had, all in Jackson? Auburn, Alabama, LSU, and Ole Miss all in Memorial Stadium.

 

[Coach34]

because I would be so excited wanting that 4 game stretch to get here so I could see all of them cause we were almost never on TV. Listening to Jack was a ritual at our house. I wasnt even allowed to go out and play when State was on the radio as a kid. I finally saw my first game on campus in 1984....

That stretch was sick...

Bammer 6-3
Auburn 24-21
LSU 55-31
What was the Mississippi score that year? 19-14?

I was in Starkville for USM-42, MSU-14, and in Tuscaloosa for UA-42, USM-7. I had planned to go to Jackson for the MSU-UA game, but after seeing those two games figured I'd be better off sparing myself the misery. I saw the score on the game I was watching on TV and listened to Jack call the last quarter or so.
