Beating Ole Miss has been an LSU tradition for as long as any of us can remember, even if the series lost much of its intensity in the 1980s and 90s due to Ole Miss spending most of that period in the football wilderness.
But as soon as Ole Miss became a viable program again, the rivalry ramped right back up. It was like they had never left. We might hate Ole Miss and wish them to go to hell at every chance we get, but we need this rivalry. It just feels right. Damning Ole Miss to hell is what bonds Louisiana fathers and sons for generations past and generations to come.
Let’s enjoy nine of those games again.
