At least I got to see #1 in football once in my life even if it wasn’t at the end of the season.
From 2013-2018, we…
Played in a College World Series Final
Had the #1 Football team in the country
Had a Heisman candidate QB
Played in a NY6 Bowl
Played for the women’s basketball national championship twice
What a run.
And in true Mississippi State fashion, we 17ed every one of those up.

It should make every single one of us happy. If it didn't you are one sad SOB.
I’m sure this goes for a lot of people, not to get all sentimental and ****, just wish dad would’ve been standing next to me to see it.

Us getting to #1 in regular season is our equivalent of a football natty
After the 2014 Auburn game I went back to our tailgate and walked off to the side and in a private moment had major dust in my eyes just wishing my dad was alive and there after all the decades of games he and I went to all over the South only to go home pI$$ed off again but to go to the next one and next one every year. My wife walked up and said you're crying aren't you and I said no I'm talking to Dad leave me alone and she did, and understood without even asking after 29 years of marriage

And the FIRST #1 in the new system.
I will never forget late in the third quarter when my 10 year old nephew (sophomore @ MSU now) that we had started taking to football games when he was 2 years old looked at me & said "Uncle WGD, are you crying?" I told him that I hoped that he would never understand the 40 years of frustration of MSU fandom that was overcome in that moment. Unfortunately the kid clearly understands now because he is watching a $h!t-show the last two years comparable to what I watched 84-88 while a student.
I traveled to Lexington and watched us win a road game while ranked #1 in the country.
Yep. Or Goat or 85Bears. I’m sure it will be Salmon’s fault if we celebrate that occasion
When I was at State, we went to multiple CWS’s, won the West and played in the SEC Championship, beat Bama 3 years in a row, and went to a Sweet 16 and Final Four.
Then it was Lucifer's domain for the last four!86 was good the first 6 games

I cried tears of joy in the Junction when we went up 21-0. I knew we were about to be #1 and never thought I’d see that in my lifetime. What a great day that was.
