From an e=mail I recieved tonight from a high school buddy. Twas a week before Thanksgiving and all through the South A rumor was stirring, spread from mouth to mouth There's some Tigers they say that can't be defeated And few Ole Miss rebels who should have retreated On a Saturday night in Oxford they'll meet And only for one will the victory be sweet The Rebels have convinced themselves, they feel they can win But I just don't think they know the Sh*t they are in... The nations best defense led by a former prison guard Will not allow Manning to score, maybe not gain a yard... Four running backs, three receivers and a leader named Matt This damn game's Nielson rating might beat the Cat in the Hat... Poor Mississippi fans...confused as can be And Eli choked up on national TV Hand it to them I say...second place isn't bad.... You could be old Auburn, that would really be sad. So for all of you Tigers with heads held so high... Take off your hats, be respectful, don't sigh... Raise up your voices, and shout with pure bliss, "Geaux LSU Tigers and go to hell old Ole Miss!"
The cat in the hat In Oxford were at To play LSU Was something to view There came a young man And most were a fan Manning was his name And he played a great game The tigers were mistified When they saw rebel pride They thought we would score none And were sad when we won All thoughts of playing in the Sugar bowl Were lost with the victory we stole The team that lost Had to accept the cost And for all and for each Accept the bowl Peach Many times they'll remember That day in November When a scrappy bunch Ate their lunch And the boys wearing red Put the tigers to bed With tears in their eyes The bayou boys realize That Ole Miss is the best In the SEC's west
Another version Twas The Night Before Ole Miss (version 2) by CJ Cox Twas the night before the big game And my happy ass is stuck in China No, I usually don’t complain I’m not normally a whiner But tomorrow is the big game For all Tiger fans to see My fighting Tigers will WIN Everyone will see but Me But thanks to www.lsusports.net For the audio they send I’ll listen to the game From the first play to the end Go Mauck, Go Clayton, and all our running backs Our offensive line, a barbed wire fence Go Corey Webster, you never give up And the rest of the guys on Defense And there goes Skyler Green Receiving the kick Man they won’t catch him today He’s just too dam quick So Eli and company Don’t be too sad When the Tigers taste victory tomorrow We’ll all be glad And dare to think Of an Oklahoma or USC loss And Tigers in the Title game The Superdome may blast off! Geaux Tigers!
Damn good post, LSUTIGERTPAW, sorry you can't watch on TV. Maybe someone can send you a tape. Going to be a great game. Good luck, and thanks again.
Re: Another version lsutigerpaw, it says your location is Palm Island Resort, China. Palm Island Resort??? Are you sure you're not in Florida or California? Palm Island Resort sounds like a place with perfect weather and great golf courses.
Palm Island Resort Yes, Palm Island Resort is a very nice place with a Great golf course. China is very contrasting, poverty on one corner and resorts on the other. I just spent 13 months in Japan, now 2-3 years in China. Besides missing my Tigers, I'm having a great time. Although a communist country, there is no signs of it. People here, and Yokohama, are very nice. They all want to be like Americans or go to America. But from what I learned so far, there are a lot of nice things about Asia that I wish we would have maintained in the US. Crime is very low to non existent, no stupid law suits for every crazy reason, people take pride in their jobs, and they all have a common respect for each other. Just like in the US 30 years ago. Well, thats it for now, Geaux Tigers! I'm listening at 4:30am. CC
