When was the last time we stormed the field?

**Charlie_Sheen420** · 10-09-2021, 06:55 PM

Just watched the end of Iowa and Penn State game, and Iowa stormed the field for some reason. It made me start to think when was the last time Davis Wade was stormed? I was a student in the early Mullen years and we never did that I can recall, not even after Auburn in 2014. Does anyone remember the last time? It?s a big IF, but IF we upset Bama, that would be good reason to storm the field...

I was there at the 99 Egg Bowl and when we beat Florida with Croom.

Nov 3, 1980, Jackson, MS, for sure?. I Was (really) There😩

Maybe in 1996 in Starkville, as well???

I?m glad we don?t do that. I want us to act like we?ve been there before. When Ole Miss beat Bama in 2014 and did it and we didn?t when we beat Auburn to go to #1 it was great. Even if we aren?t a top program act like we are

I stormed that field with my brothers. We had to jump fences. My older brother was putting grass in his wallet. I was in the circle surrounding Bond and had my picture in many publications as the years went on.

My son, ten or so at the time, was reading a Sports Illustrated in BAMM and said, ?Dad? Didn?t you say you were in Sports Illustrated once?? They had run the photo again after almost 20 years in some special edition and he recognized me.

I probably should have just googled it, but the last time was against Florida, October 2004 with Croom...the year of the Maine...kinda crazy it?s been that long

Alabama 1996, but I'm sure there's been one since then.

2004, Florida. And a coach got "Croomed" the next day.

We probably hold the record for getting the opposing coach fired after losing to us. I suppose losing to MSU must be the most embarrassing and career-ending move ever.

Yeah I was just about to post that I remembered folks storming the field that day. I don't think it happened much after that (if at all) because the university started posting security around the field. Also because we sucked until Mullen came along.

I was swinging from the crossbar when the north end zone posts came down.

If I'm not mistaken, that was the first of the "croomed". Too bad memes didn't exist back then, because that would've been a good one.

That was a cold night with a strong northerly wind. The parachutists landed with the wind, one of them stalled, and it about killed him. Game start was delayed quite a while.

I like to think he took a bump, shot-gunned a beer, and said "yo bitches, watch this!" right before he jumped. Then...Splat!

Yeah. But I can't think of very many other times that may have warranted it. Maybe Auburn 2014? 2013 Egg Bowl?

Yep. That's the day I learned the human body could bounce when it hit the ground.

I had gotten married that August and my wife and I would drive over from Atlanta. With about a minute left I turned to her and said "I'll meet you at the tailgate in about an hour" and headed toward the student section from section 21. I wasn't going to miss that insanity. Somehow, my wife is still here.

Both of these would've been acceptable, IMO. 2014 for what it meant, both in the moment, and for when the rankings came out on Sunday. 2013 for the emotion of it all, Dak being hurt, coming in and leading the drive, the OT fumble, etc. The 2014 season really started that night.

**Coach34** · 10-09-2021, 07:42 PM

I stormed the court in 1991 when we beat LSU and won the SEC title for the 1st time since the 60's. I stormed in 1996 after the Bama win.

Good times

If we win Saturday? Storm that bitch again

**Lord McBuckethead** · 10-09-2021, 07:44 PM

2004 against UF. Ron Zook got Croomed.

I'm not exactly sure why we haven't. Does it have to do with the fact that the new student section makes it more difficult to access the field? Back in the day all we had to do was jump the fence and the bushes not to mention there were some gates open and I think you could go around and access the field on the sides kind of.
