I seem to remember McGillis tweeting about it awhile back. He's not here anymore, of course.

Their fans definitely care about it more than we do. Go on their Bulldog Bytes board. They REALLY want to beat us this year.

I do like them because they are culturally similar to us and they actually bring fans to Hattiesburg, but I don't really consider them a rival at all. They don't get my blood boiling like a Memphis, Houston, ECU, or even Tulane do.

Gimme the Black and Blue Bowl and games with ECU again. I'm glad that the series with Tulane was scheduled especially since I just moved to New Orleans and work with a bunch of Tulane grads. Hopefully they bring the bell trophy back too.

I do, however, hope that the games with LA Tech can keep being competitive and can eventually turn into a rivalry.

Pretty sure it was Bob Pierce who started saying TTT after first downs. That's what I've been told, at least.

Further proof that our leaders are absolute idiots.

Pierce is no longer at Southern Miss.

Definitely one-sided. Still, helluva lot more interesting than any of our current opponents.

Whoever it was that said JSU and Alcorn are more intriguing than any CUSA team was right. Those schools bring fans and a band + they usually have some players you may have followed in HS or JUCO ball.

PA and crowd: MOVE. DEM. CHAINS.

Everyone has the right to be stupid... It's just that some people abuse the privilege.

Re: Wacky way to increase revenue

Late in the Southern game, a family was leaving, and their little 3-year-old girl was half-shouting the "Nasty Bunch" cheer. Had to explain it to my girlfriend. Very funny shit.

Re: Wacky way to increase revenue

We have some weird traditions here at Southern Miss. The TTT cheer, "Nasty Bunch", losing to UAB in everything, etc.

Re: Wacky way to increase revenue

Now you're just making me miss rearing children. Maybe it wasn't the world's finest, but I'd eat a ton of it if I could turn the clock back.
