and that has what bearing on this years game???
And that is exactly what you pukes tell us when we talk about our glory days, "Stop living in the past".....It's a two-way street, punk. If history repeats itself, well, you know the rest. You know the ratio in which Tigah High beats the Rebs, and you know Memphis State's record in Oxford. Good luck, you're gonna need it. I can promise you this, too, this will be the most hostile environment Memphis State fans will have ever seen in Oxford. Memphis State isn't even an afterthought to us, just our little red-headed step-sister to the north. But once every decade you get our attention, and you got it last season. The humiliation we suffered in that dump of a stadium y'all have was enormous last year, worst I'd ever experienced as a Rebel of 33 years. Yes, it is extremely embarrassing losing to Tiger High, I will admit.

That is truly a sad thing to admit, when y'all will still be just a mediocre, middle-of-the-pack little wannabe to the rest of the country. Stick to basketball, it's the one thing y'all don't have a ridiculously pitiful history in.
And RebelKev, I always knew you were a little radical in your thinking, but you have completely jumped ship from your sanity. If you think trading Vandy for Memphis State would be a step-up, then YOU need to be checked into Whitfield, my friend. That is like booting Saddam from dictatorship, and electing Osama to take over for him. Robbing Peter to pay Paul, sort of thing.
Rivalry Smivalry....Pfft, it's only a true rivalry if both teams think of it as a rivalry. To them, we are their BCS Bowl game, their Super Bowl, if you will(if you question that, just please take note of how they act after they beat us, they are predicting an undefeated NC season, with 2 Heismans for God's sake....LOL). To us, they are merely a dot on the schedule that we take for granted once every ten years. Come back to Earth, Mr. Kev.

The way I hear it....and I'm not kidding ~
You are killing me. Before any of you blow your tops it's just a joke. Reading this thread that all started with an inaccurate (or incomplete) observation gives me a good laugh. Two or three posters on the Memphis board get carried away and the next thing you know (according to bigeazy) is that "Memphis fans are talking 12-0". As far as the Heisman thing goes; I have only heard of DW being mentioned by some publications. I have not heard anyone else mention a second TIGER football player on any list. If they have then see above remarks about 12-0. Not one game has been played so every fan of every school should be excited. The real joke is the acrid remarks made by some of the obknoxious morons on this board about how bad our stadium is a dump (and VH has dirt underneath and bleachers does it not? I'll take the LB anyday over VH anyday), our crime ridden city, how the University of Memphis is not even an afterthought to the webels...etc... yet many webel fans rave about staying at the Peabody, going to Beale Street, etc... and both sides have gone to great lengths to keep the series going. Man, for all of this attention to Memphis when we don't even matter at all it must be a slow day in mississippi - oh wait -they must all seem slow in atticipation of ole' mrs. annual "fling a players name at the heisman race" campaign.
