Whoa now. Just because you call them "cajuns" instead of "rednecks" doesn't mean you don't qualify as well.

Correct. More like Old School, Old Money Southerners that think their s..t doesn't stink.

Can confirm. Ole Miss is super douchey. A lot of the people that I have met that went there were the rich kids who made average grades in high school....and like the Ole Miss of the past, they're mostly incredibly racist and condescending to people not like them. Costas, Chubbies, Sperry's, Dave Matthews Band, and long, perfectly manicured hair as far as the eye can see.

Looking forward to introducing them to the New South, and replacing the Old Guard!

Outside of UGA, there may not be a team I just can't stand more than Ole Miss.

To get a game against someone you don't like is an extra bonus.

Easy. Just because you caught a perfect storm against a UF program in their worst season in 40 years doesn't mean these power conference school games are now good bet wins. One win against an FBS team ever.

Ole Miss' incredible recruiting class from 13' will be seniors then. I don't expect that game to be close regardless of what Fritz does in the next two years.

Would rather take my chances with money games against NCSU, Navy & GT than against #1 UGA or #1 Alabama. Which is the point I believe he was making.

no doubt. the odds of catching an NC State, Ole Miss, Vanderbilt etc on a bad day is way better than catching the Alabama and UGA's of the world on a bad day/bad season.

We will still be big time underdogs, but I'd rather be getting money games against them than Bama and LSU every year.

Jealous much? What does our win over Florida have to do with this? And who said anything about sure bet wins?

There is scheduling, and there is smart scheduling. Playing Alabama every other year is not smart scheduling. Playing NCState, Ole Miss, Miss State, UNC, Vandy, Kentucky, etc... that is smart. You can most likely get close to the same pay out of those schools and have a MUCH better chance on the field. No one said it's a sure thing. But I like our chances much better against those lower caliber P5 teams than I do against arguably the nations top program(s).

RE: Georgia Southern to play at Ole Miss in 2016
Lol. I already said in this thread that I grew up a Florida fan. So clearly not jealous. That was the worst experience i've ever had in sports. Without a doubt.

Anyways, perhaps I read too much into the word "winnable". I read that as
"likely to win" and not the alternative you suggested in the second post of "winnable" simply meaning better chances than against UGA or Bama. I still don't necessarily agree that Ole Miss will be one of those games in 16' if everyone stays and Freeze continues to recruit at the pace he has been. But I admit I jumped the gun a bit. Carry on.

Yeah, Florida looked horrible the week before our game against top 10 South Carolina in Columbia. Not sure how they were leading the gamecocks most of the game. Must have been pure luck.

Note that we beat them by twice the point spread UGA did.

Also: They had a top 10 Nationally Ranked (the #2 in the SEC) defense!

Yea, poor gators had 10(11) starters out. We had 19 starters out!

9 TEEN!

UF lost a lot of games last year, but they still had some great Athletes on the field.

I don't see NCST being any better. The big question is how we will be compared to when we played UF?

And yet we lost to Furman, App, Woffy, and Samford. The win was one of the most exciting sports moments Ive ever witnessed but let's not fool ourselves, UF was clearly ill prepared for our game.

Week before we beat them they took the Gamecocks to the wire in Columbia. We also had to deal with the SEC officials. Easily the most corrupt set of officials in the game. Glad we no longer have to deal with that albatross as an FBS team.

Last year we had nothing to play for, and Monken strategically red shirted anyone with a hangnail. Florida got us at half strength and flex still cut through them like obsidian

RE: Georgia Southern to play at Ole Miss in 2016
Not sure what you people are arguing about anymore. But ok. I'll bite.

1. Southern did not have 19 starters out. That is the biggest misinformation ever. MAYBE 19 starters from spring practice or something? Or maybe 19 players total? Check the depth chart for the Savannah State game and the UF game.

http://www.gseagles.com/documents/2013/8....pdf?id=37

http://gseagles.com/documents/2013/11/20...pdf?id=221

18 similar starters. Give me a freakin break with your 19 starters out.

2. I completely agree the style of offense played a factor. Because UF didn't give two flips to prepare for it. They were in the midst of their worst season in 30 years, playing for an unpopular coach with a quarterback who at that point could barely throw the ball more than 10 yards down field because of a shoulder injury. There were some motivational issues.

3. The USC/UGA game is an even worse argument. First of all comparing two different games is moronic. But I was at all three games. Trust me. UF didn't play any better against USC than they did Southern. Muschamp had a good game plan and kelvin taylor ripped off two nice runs in the first half. That's it. There was nothing special they did against USC that they didn't do against Southern.

4. Stats are accumulated throughout the season. Sure UF had a top 10 defense. They also had that level of talent on the field at certain points of the season. If you are saying that UF had a top 10 defense on that day on the field than you are the biggest moron ever. UF first 5 games (healthy to somewhat healthy defense) allowed 217 yards per game. Last 7 games they allowed 383 yards per game.

Having said all of that, I swallowed my pride long ago and congratulated Southern for its biggest win in program history. My previous post was to simply point out that was their only win ever against an FBS opponent and should not be used as an argument that they should expect to be able to simply handle lower level SEC opponents. I also already admitted that wasn't what the poster said and that I had overreacted. Anyone else want to try me with some BS?

I think it was 19 (out of ~65) scholarships players out. Not Starters. I think that our fans somehow morphed that over the months.

Scholarship =/= starter.

RE: Georgia Southern to play at Ole Miss in 2016
we've always felt that if gs would've played more non-top 25 teams, we would have a few more fbs wins. we would have beat a lot of big east and acc teams during the late 90's. but we could only get uga to play us.
UF was a great win at the perfect time. they played poorly and poorly coached and gs played the best game of the season. the starters number is miss leading to, both ways, we had a few starters out the whole season.

i'm really hoping to here we got a bcs school to come to statesboro. that will be huge.

It is still a red state but more folks live in the metro Atlanta area now than the entire rest of the state. A big change for the state a decade or so ago.

1. You are correct, we had 19 scholarship players out.
2. Also correct. No doubt they were not up for our game.
3. Comparing games is tricky, but I would say that comparing a Uf game the week before ours if fair. UF was very capable of beating us given their performance vs Carolina (and the level of talent they had top to bottom), they just couldn't get it done.
4. Yeah UF was not the same UF of week 1. Alabama's defense at the end of the season was really bad, but I have a sneaky feeling that if the mighty Panthers of Georgia State hung 26 on Bama at the end of the season that we would get to hear all about it. Matter of fact, if your team hung 26 on any solid P5 school we would all never hear the end of it.

And to top it all off, your team has played an entire FBS schedule and still not managed to win an FBS game. Our FBS games have been against the top dogs, aside from a handful of them, and we fared well in nearly all of them. So please come back to critique our win over UF after you beat an SEC school (I would say an FBS school, but you lucked up when the SBC added Idaho and NMSU).
