Latest issue of Sports Illustrated has a map of college football transfers. Shows that Stevens transferred to "Mississippi". Truly pathetic, but hardly surprising.

National media can't get through the 2nd syllable in Mississippi State...they get to "Miss-ah..." and their brain detaches. We should just say MSU, I know we can't print or market anything with "MSU" because of those Michigan State bastards, but we should at least verbally say "MSU".

In 1972, the name of our mascot (Bully XI) was, in fact, “Rebel”.

Maybe this is the source of the confusion?

Bully XI (Rebel) was the topic of discussion here back in October.

He was a temporary replacement mascot owned by an alum and served as mascot during midseason.

His predecessor Bully X was killed (run over) after Homecoming that season.

His successor Bully XII was murdered.

I have a dog named rebel. I named him that cause the ******* is worthless, scared of everything, doesn't like to fetch, and thinks he is the greatest damn dog.
