I guess you guys really enjoy claiming that we claim you're not our rival. Silly. You're our main rival. Storming the field was due to various factors:
1. We won four games two years ago and two games last year. We won six games this year, and the Egg Bowl was number six, making us bowl eligible for the first time in three years.
2. We did not expect to win six games this year, and our progress is markedly on faster track than we expected.
3. You and your coach have talked **** and rubbed **** in, including but not limited to using official university billboards all over the state. Banks and Lawrence talked **** before the game, and Perkins took ownership of his "Rebel Killer" moniker in the newspaper.
4. We not only won, we destroyed in the second half and several key players had a big game, and our seniors went out with a win. We started the season with no real "stars" on our team. We ended with a nice cavalry of guys who never give up and make big plays, including guys like little Jeff Scott who doesn't always make "big" plays but, to use your terminology, "grinds" it out for his team.
5. We lost some very close games this year, including against A&M and LSU, and yet our team came back and fought like warriors in their last game, to end the losing streak against our rival.
Stop whining and take it like a man. Your hashtag, Snow Bowl and Egg Bowl uniforms, etc. ******** disqualify you from calling anything bush league.
Swarming the field was all about showing love for this rag-tag team of mugs who refused to quit. Your team quit, and you didn't win. Sorry you are upset.
Edited to add: I noticed Whit Waide hasn't made one Tweet about the Egg Bowl.
