It's not just ESPN. In the SEC Network's listings of logos at the end of the "It just means more", and other ads, we are behind the Ole Miss logo and all other teams are in alphabetical order. What gives? Really tees me off.Quote:

there is no lack of knowledge on this . they get their rocks off on pissing us off . they've always hated us and they jack off to pissing us off. ole miss sends the check.
It would look a whole lot better imo.Quote:

That would certainly explain a lot.Quote:

State......one of them said...."oh...so you're one of those Rebels".Quote:

I cannot figure out any reasson or order being used that "Ole Miss" should come before MState, unless it is their antebellum year of their founding vs. our date of 1878.*** By the way, I think AU is used for Auburn after the bama symbol. We are being put down in order behind the "lagship".Quote:

I just told you. They aren't listing it alphabetically by the logos. They're listing it alphabetically by the school's name excluding the word university then they are placing the logos so it'd be the same order even if the logo said Zole Miss.Quote:

Of course, that means Delta State comes before Jackson State comes before Mississippi.
I get what you're saying, but I still don't like it. Bring back the interlocking MSU in some shape or form asap. Look at Coach 34's helmet in his posts, best look we have ever had. The UNM "M" and our johnny come lately "M with a State banner" confuse many people outside our state. Hail State!Quote:
