About a year or so after State players, coaches, and fans started talking about MSU Nation being a family, Ole Miss folks have started "Red & Blue Family" as a thing. Selling car stickers and stuff.

Posers.

There is literally nothing original about anything they do.

Have to disagree. I've never seen a coach from another team give an interview and say he'd waiting for a player's nuts to drop. That was pretty original.

They should go by "Black and Blue Family" the way the Egg Bowl has been going for them.

Point of order. The term Ole Miss was taken from slaves. Ole Miss's own website said so.

Here's the google cache link if it still works (I can't tell - my router blocks cache links)

In the early decades of the twentieth century, a cadre of New South boosters
lobbied for reconciliation with the North in an effort to propel economic
advancement in the still-crippled region. It has been noted that one of the best
creations of the New South was the Old South, a suggestion that reflects those
New South boosters' attempts to mitigate their supplication of the assistance of
the North by hearkening back to a nostalgic, if illusory, "moonlight and magnolia"
time under slavery. During this time period, the university became known as
"Ole Miss," a moniker used by slaves to describe the wife of the plantation owner.
