That's the one Dak plays on". Of course we were #1 at the time but it shows that it can be done, even at lil ole Miss State.

More bama fans in my NE MS county with the bama stickers (that outweigh the value of said vehicle BTW), on their vehicles than State & OM combined. Most don't even know the way to Tuscaloosa or ever heard of "Tusk"! Takes a lot of guts and love to be "True Maroon"!

Golden oldie W girl here, but many family did, and hopefully will in the future. I was born into it. Ha, the night I was busy being born, my dad & grandad were busy listening to Tulane pummel State 50plus to zero, on the radio, in mom?s hospital room (was well before tvs in hospitals or homes). It was a definite harbinger for things to come, yet I am an unapologetic, relentless, optimistic MSU fan, for life. In my family, if you support Ole Miss, in any shape or form, you are a black sheep, lol. That has not changed.

Myself 02 broadcast meteorology, my wife 01 education, my oldest is there now in forestry and my youngest will be there next year in forestry

Right here.

I?m a graduate along with 2 of my siblings. Between the 3 of us, 6 of our kids are grads are as well.

We are a divided, ignorant a for some unknown to me reason entitled. In my experience we can get to the highest point of college athletics in both men?s and women?s sports. But, we have no sustainability in those highs. Even at the highest points we as a group are constantly bitching about some small issue or looking for something to be scared of.

We will never have the resources the majority of the other schools in our league have. But we have been competing and competitive. In this new era of the NIL and unlimited free agency the only way we keep up is to have a unified vision and voice.

I am very skeptical that we ever will, we are one of the most educated fan bases there is in FBS yet we continually act like the dumbest bunch of ticks on the block.

We do seem to have the dumbest football alumni anyway.

Yes. Two degrees.

Me 1970

1972

Twice; 1973 and 1979

State fans are as loyal as any other fanbase and maybe moreso. And I am proud to be one among you.

'86.

ME - co-oped 7 semesters to pay for the next semester

Wife is a grad too

I attended and graduated from State.

Graduates or not, its really cool to see the love for MSU in this thread. Something that binds us all, despite where we might disagree elsewhere.

Yep

No I graduated from Union University. I have a niece and nephew that are State grads. In fact I have only been on the campus once with a cousin in the early 90s at an Egg Bowl. Even did a year at a school that everybody hates here. Worst year of my life. This farm boy didn't fit in there. But I have been to every State trip to Memphis, bowls or against the Tigers since the 90s. Being from rural farm people State has always been the team I pull for.
