Rebel Roundup - 12/14/09

by Ivory Tower on Dec 14, 2009 4:33 PM EST

Yeah, it's 3:30. So what? I spent every minute since 7:45 this morning trying to recover from that awesome party I had with all those chicks and their revealing clothes. Of course, I didn't really have an awesome hangover this morning. I just went to work and forgot that I told Ghost I would do the roundup. Sue me.

Oh, and don't expect it to be well-formatted like Ghost does it.

The enemy of my enemy. The folks over at the Rivalry, Esq. have taken the blogger Q and A to a whole new degree of separation in a segment called "The enemy of my enemy." Fans of Penn State, who is facing our rival LSU Tigers in the Cotton Bowl, asked JUCO some questions about those punks. And JUCO answered those questions. But before you click that link, be prepared - The Rivalry, Esq. has this very offensive rendering of William T. Sherman with the caption "Defending the Union since 1865" displayed prominently on their site. Everything JUCO said is safe for children. William Tecumseh Sherman - former president of LSU, remember - is not.

Wayne Dorsey commits to Ole Miss. The five-star defensive end out of Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College is heralded as the top DL recruit in the country. What'd your parents think of Oxford, Wayne?

"I think my mom just loved the city and the coaches and the campus. My mom and dad kept commenting how beautiful it was around the campus and town. That really surprised them. You know how the south and Mississippi kind of get a bad rap up north. Once they saw those things were not true, they gave me their blessing.

If "south" is correlated with ugliness and mean old racism, does that mean that, by virtue of being that school up north, Ole Miss is, by operation of logic, less ugly and racist than State? Welcome to Ole Miss, Wayne. Knock some heads and bust some stereotypes all you want.

Buckeyes avoid the upset versus Lady Rebels. Ohio State rallied back in the Tad Pad to beat the Ole Miss Wimmerns 79-77. The Lady Rebels were hosting a book drive last night in Oxford for the illiterate of Lafayette County. Maybe that turned out better.

Houston Nutt rumored to be receiving interest from Dallas. More details here.

wait

As for their lunacy/instability, that’s dead on. Those people are nuts. When the same is said for Alabama fans, a point is generally made to exclude fans who actually attended the school from said group of lunatics.

so since I just got my degree does that mean I don’t get to be a lunatic anymore?

I may have a higher education, but I stripped down to my boxers in the middle of the houndstooth. I had red pants balled up around my ankles dammit!

also Rivalry Esq. is the only big 10 blog I like

We kindof expect you to be a bit insane,

we’d be upset otherwise.

Old or new Houndstooth?

That makes a HUGE difference. Personally I haven’t been to the new one, and even them I probably wouldn’t count it.

DAMN I feel sorry for the incoming students who will never experience that…much like today’s Ole Miss students and…well damn [insert any good bar in Oxford that closed in the last 15 years here].

Was just watching

Bowl Mania Special on ESPNU and happened to turn it on right when they got to the Cotton Bowl picks. 2 out of 3 of those talking heads picked Ole Miss. One of them said this would probably be Jevan’s last college game. Umm, can we be that lucky? Being a Junior and sucking as bad as he has this year – tied for first place in the whole nation in interceptions – surely he isn’t thinking about going pro????

DAMN IT TO HELL!!! I WAS going to say something nice about LSU... but my clock ran out.

I am NEVER surprised...

…by the high-dollah talking heads when they say stuff like that about Jevan or anyone else for that matter. Why should we expect that they do any research on anything when the evidence supports otherwise.

Jevan goes pro? Yeah. Okay. He is welcome to offer himself up if he desires to. I certainly won’t stand in his way. But after the 2009 performance, he’d serve himself and his pro-$$$ quotient better to stick around fer that ole senior season.

And learn to take a valium or xanax before “the big game” so that maybe he learns how not to choke.

As always, in my humble opinion.
