Did not remember that at all. Fitz/Damien Williams year?

Probably not my most angry, but the first one that comes to mind is the 2016 loss to South Alabama at 11:00 am opening game after we won 9 games the year before. It felt like the entire year was over before it even got started.

Yea and it's because our defense gave up a ton of points in every game he mentioned except OM
Arkansas-58
Kentucky-40
A&M-28
Samford-41
Add on to that:
UMASS-35
Auburn-38

I really think the GT game was many players not wanting to get hurt on D impacting their NFL draft stock. GT with the blocking down at the knees. Our O was good that game, I think Dak set an orange bowl record. Our D never tried to stop the option and that dirty blocking tactic GT used.
But yeah I was really mad about that followup from the egg bowl.

OK who can ever forget the BYU game at home. Talk about bad officiating with the Sunbelt officials and the dirty SOBs from BYU.

after that game walking down the ramp-the 2 bama idiots with the tide box and toliet paper roll walked by us shaking them at us and roll tiding--when my Brother tried to stick the tide box up his rectum.

Yeah the year Fitz only got like a couple and series then sat the bench. Fitz plays all day we win game easily. That was maybe the worst opening day loss I can remember.

Yep. The defensive back was in front of the receiver and he just went up and picked it off.

The dead silence of the crowd when the FG clanged off the upright. Ugh.
The way DM handled 2016 was criminal. That team wasn't as bad as their record. Only Sirmon could make a defense play that poorly.
"After dealing with Ole Miss for over a year," he said, "I've learned to expect their leadership to do and say things that the leadership at other Division I schools would never consider doing and to justify their actions by reminding themselves that "We're Ole Miss.""

You completely forgot about them shooting off the cannon as if we'd made it. We were watching the game in the Junction and one of my buddies started high fiving everyone when the cannons went off and just said "WTF" when we missed it and I think he was silent for like an hour.

LOL - I was in the NEZ suites and had no idea they fired the canon. That ranks high on the "How MS State Was That?" scale.
The worst part about that weekend was we left a High School football game in Orlando that Thursday night before, and literally drove through Hurricane Hermine as it made landfall to get to a hotel in Lake City FL before driving to Starkville the next day.
I was dead by the time we kicked off that Saturday. So was the team.

I remember talking to a player that Saturday night and they were just like, "Mullen wasn't even mad. It was almost like he was enjoying how much hell he was going to put them through that next week." Then I talked to Nick later on in the week because I had heard Damian had gotten some of the receivers together to throw on Sunday, basically to try and gain favor for him to keep the starting job. Said Mullen walked in on either Monday or Tuesday and said "Nick is the bleeping QB and if you don't like it the door is right there." And then started calling out some of the receivers by name who had been trying to sow dissension on the Nick vs Williams stuff. Said he crawled up Fred Ross' ass pretty good.

either the '81 or '83 Egg Bowls

I have not attended a State game in awhile since I live far away, but the most frustrating one for me that I attended was South Carolina in 2011. I thought we would win at least 8 or 9 games after the 2010 season. I traveled from Pennsylvania to see that one and it was one we really blew. We should have won that game and I believe lost 14-13 or something along those lines. That game made me question Mullen more than any game during his tenure. Just watching on TV, the worst games were UK 2018 because what I knew about Moorhead showed up to be true. It was just as bad in 2019 when we lost to KState at home because when we hired Moorhead I wanted Cohen to hire Kleiman as our replacement for Mullen. The 2021 Egg Bowl was frustrating too because even though Ole Miss was the better team, it seemed as though we were not prepared. We have been so bad the last two years I wouldn't say I have been "frustrated". While in college, 3-2 was definitely the worst or Tulane 2006.

1. Tulane post-Katrina under Croom. Everyone talks about Machine, but that game was worse.
2. 08 Auburn. Final score: 3-2. Enough said.
3. 09 LSU. Y'all have covered it. Give Dixon the damn ball.
4. 09 Houston. Refs absolutely stole it, cost us a bowl game.
5. 99 Bama. Phantom holding on the Pig Prather punt return. Game completely swings on that call.
6. 18 Florida. Jughead gets embarrassed and exposed as a fraud by Mullen.
Not ranked in order of anger, just how they came to my mind.

Damn, is forgotten that one. Another one the refs absolutely stole. Beat the hell out of them in Provost the next year, though.

I’m a dinosaur but this was AWFUL, ranked up there with the end of the season the DOGS hit #1. Bellard never learned when the DOGS have a foot on the neck of a rebel defense you score a td instead of going conservative to try a fg.........

That game let me know Moorhead was a dumb ass but we still controlled our destiny. Plus UK was good, we were at their place, and we really only got beat by their d-end who was un-blockable.
