Tuesday Question: Whose Season Will We Ruin?

PrintAs with Houston Nutt coached teams, we were bound to lose to someone we weren't supposed to. Of course, none of us expected it to be in double-overtime to an FCS team which we at one point led by 21, but it happened. And so, as with Vanderbilt-then-Florida in 2008 and LSU-then-TSFWCDAO in 2009, this agonizing yin will be somewhat offset by an uplifting yang against a ranked SEC opponent looking past the Rebels or succumbing to a horrible stroke of bad luck.
It will happen. We'll hoot and holler and Hotty Toddy and stuff. It will be fun. And, who knows, with the way the SEC and BCS title hunts look right now, such a loss could easily knock someone out of legitimate title contention. That would be double fun! That'd make us the kid in town who pees in the pool with a grin on his face. Delightful, huh?
So, to keep it simple, Cuppers, who will this opponent be? Our options are Alabama, a team which is likely to still be #1 by the time we play them in Tuscaloosa, a place in which our Rebels have only won once (if I'm not mistaken); Arkansas, a team rooted for by crazies and also playing in a hostile environment to the Rebels; Auburn, a team we always seem to play close but come out losing; or LSU (for shiggles)?

Arkansas won't matter...
whether we beat them or not, they’ll lose at least 3 games this year; The only choices here are the alabama schools and LSU, depending on Les’ Lucky Charms®;
Bout damn time we beat Bama when it mattered;
Alabama could line up a team full of third graders
and they’d still find a way to kick our ass.m We, for whatever reason, are not meant to ever beat Alabama. I don’t think that game will be close.
Our best bet, in my opinion, will be Arkansas. Nutt will actually encourage the team to play for two halves, and he most likely will even get creative with his play calling. If our defensive backs can figure out trade secrets like “Don’t Let Anybody Behind You When The Game Is On The Line And It’s Fourth And Fifteen”, we might even bottle their offense like last year.
Pig Pen this here's Rubber Duck, and I'm about to put the hammer down.
Oh, cute.
I did your usual thing, and then you did mine.

I wouldn't be shocked at all
if we beat LSU- they looked pretty mediocre against an ACC school playing with its backups. We have absolutely no shot against Bama at all. So, I vote for Auburn. Their defense looked pretty pedestrian this weekend, and perhaps our defense gets it together by then and slows them down enough for us to get the win.
Well it won't be anybody now......
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Shut the fuck up, the Sports Gods have the internet.
Also, TSFWCDAO?

Repping Ole Miss in 34 countries since 1996
Going by the reality-warping system of karma that permeates this school,
Since we just had our worst loss in school history, we’re now due for the biggest upset win in school history. Don’t know the complete history of Ole Miss fb upsets, but I don’t see how it could get any bigger than beating ’bama in Tuscaloosa while there #1. Do I think it will actually happen? Hell no. But then again, if Jacksonville State can beat us at home, I figure we got a shot at ’bama.

There's a very good chance you lose to all of the above,
but If you just have to pick one, be smart and go with Auburn at home.
You won’t pick a fight with either ‘Bama or Arkansas on their own turf and LSU won’t be beat at home for a 3rd consecutive loss to the Rebs.
You guys are just dreaming now.
And you're just stating the obvious now
and pretending that you’re some kind of Goddamn genius.

Gonzo
you’re so cute. It’s really precious.
It’s also clear you really don’t understand Ole Miss at all. We don’t play by the normal rules of “Who you beat” and “Who beats you.” Logic does not apply to Rebel sports…just like it doesn’t exist in your world.
this question should be asked every year
as long as i have been an ole miss fan, our sole job has just been to ruin other teams seasons. with the exception of the ed ogeron years, our seasons have always gone like this: we always lose to a team we are better than (vandy, jax state, msstate) and beat someone who is way better than us(usually florida,sometimes lsu).
i’d love to see us put the nail in les miles coffin, though. that would be most satisfying.
Hello rebel fans!
See y’all in Fayetville, AR.
New play this year called “the Nutt cracker”. lol.

How bout none of the above, ol’ rebs gonna get spanked by all of these teams and in the slight chance reb pulls out a victory against one, it doesnt matter because the only team in the sec who has been beaten by an FCS team is ole miss!
How’s coach nutt working out for ya’ll by the way, LMAO!!!
WOOOOO PIG!
How about
we’d gone 65 years without losing to an FCS team and y’all have lost to one in the last 20?
And odds are we’ll only get really pwned by one, if any, of the four listed, while you fatbacks and your tres homosexual plastic hats lose to every team you play with even an adequate secondary?
Suck nuts, pig.
And here's a lighthouse keeper being beheaded by a laser beam!
Arkansas fans are so stupid and obviously completely clueless about Ole Miss football.
They act like we needed Houston Nutt to lose to teams we should beat. we’ve been doing that consistently for years. Did it under brewer, did it under Cut, did it under orgeron, now doing it under nutt.
That being said, our season aint done yeat. We’ll beat at least one of those teams. I just hope its Arkansas so they can be the team that lost to the team that lost to an FCS.
That wont happen though becasue this is the year they win the west. rrrriiiiiiigggghhhhhttt. I bet.
Your probably right.
We may not win the West, but then again, we might.
I’ll bet you said the exact same thing when JSU possibly beating Ole Miss was brought up too, didn’t you?.
On the flip side, I hope Ole Miss endures it’s worst loss of the season at Arkansas. May not happen, but there’s a pretty good chance.
