Battle of the BBQs?

[Walter White.sixpack]

Seems MSU is having a BBQ event Friday while the Great Whites (OM) are having one on Saturday.

Does anyone know what type of BBQ State will be serving up this weekend?

And can you believe OM's newest promotion? Surely they see this isn't a good idea...

They're great. They're white. They're tone deaf.

 

[The Peeper]

They clearly have an identity crisis. What does Land Shark have to do with a great white in the ocean?

I laughed when I saw this tweet the other day...

Surely one of you whippersnappers can photoshop a klan hood to replace that helmet.

This is the type of stuff when you are reacting to the moves of your rival/peers/competitors. They are not forward thinking or original. They are in panic mode. They are flustered. They are desperate for attention.

"The Great White Hope" would be more befitting.

Don’t really get it. Looks like a good old fashioned water-shark to me.

They try so hard for that damn Landshark crap to matter. Much like the War Eagle in Auburn, the rest of the country is confused and embarrassed for them.

Only the Fighting Okra have pulled off the second mascot. It's glorious.

"The Great White Hype" fits better IMHO.

 

[diggidydog]

Is that in Sardis Lake?

 

[jakldawg]

My, my, my

They're once bitten, twice shy.

 

[MadDawg.sixpack]

They are just trying to appeal to the fans that felt alienated when they got rid of Col. Reb and Crunchy Mike.

 

[thekimmer]

LOL! Very good point. If they are supposed to be the LAND sharks why is the helmet in the WATER.

 

[T-TownDawgg]

I find it hilarous they are hanging on for dear life to this labelling gimmick to define their program.

A self-promoted label belonging to a defense giving up 200+ YPG rushing last year. That's the identity. Wow.

There's no comparison between a 100+ year tradition of the War Eagle battle cry and UM adopting a mascot from a Saturday Night Live sketch. And no one is confused by either. Everyone knows that Auburn is the Tigers and Mississippi is the Rebels. No one ever calls them the War Eagles or the Land Sharks (or the Bears).
