Against my better judgement I responded to some Ole Miss fans on another site that has mixed fan bases in it. They are adamant that the Fitzgerald injury play was not intentional and "the few State fans that actually believe it was are absolute idiots". I knew that a few Ole Miss fans actually believed that was just a freak play, but there are a bunch on there defending it (and these are the more moderate fans that actually have conversations with other fanbases daily). How in the hell can anyone watch that play and then watch them try to take our backup quarterback out doing the same **** and not think it's intentional?
I have a question for the board.

Exactly. Even though that's not the actual ankle he dislocated, he was trying to hurt that one, missed it, and rolled onto the other one.
Next time try talking to crack heads. They are much more advanced creatures with greater capacity for reason and rationale.
That picture means nothing, in fact it's deceptive. Watch the video. It's a textbook case of how to take a guy out of a game. So is what they tried to do to Thompson later on. They missed on that one. I have no doubt in MY mind they were coached to do it. The fact that they were filmed doing it, twice, is evidence enough for me.
They are the idiots.
Have one of those idiots ask any of our players if it was intentional or not.

Just curious, did any of them also once say that Hugh Freeze was a decent Christian man and Houston Nutt was the devil? Take their word for what it's worth. I've said it many times here, but it bears repeating: Ole Miss fans are some of the most despicable people on earth, irrespective of context.

I'm beginning to think that JoMo may actually dominate OM like no coach ever has. I do know that OM is in for a shelling this year.

Luke had every opportunity to display ethics and class in that game... especially when his player hiked his leg in the end zone and instead of benching him he trotted right back out there on the field.
Luke saw the Egg Bowl as his best opportunity to win the HC job and was prepared to do anything to win it and get that nice salary.

To be fair, I wouldn’t care one bit if Guidry takes a piss in oxfart if it gave me a 2 million+ pay raise.
I might be out there with him pissing honestly. The speaks deal is different tho, would never stoop to that level.
Wasn't it an LSU game that one of our offensive lineman got suspended for stomping on one of their players? It wasn't a penalty during the game, and seems they raised enough hell about it he was suspended before they made it back to Starkville.
They broke Fitz's leg and dislocated his ankle and tried to injure KT in the same manner during the Egg Bowl, and the league did nothing. Of course, our soon to be named UT coach, I mean UF coach, probably didn't say one word about his thoughts on it to anyone, including our AD. And they got away with it. If you can't tell in my mind it was 100% intentional, orchestrated and discussed prior to the game, by the bastards from up north, then I'll tell you. Yes it was definitely intentional...

Heres what ive noticed from my tsun family and friend(s): they havent even mentioned the game.....and thats highly unusual. Nothing at christmas at all....a first. Why? They all know this egg bowl win is tainted. Um knew their only chance to win was to take players out. It was their ONLY approach. And the few ive heard from have admitted all this as truth. Only an ignorant guilty person who is trying to un-taint this EB so they can actually enjoy it would say those hits weren't intentional.

Oh there’s a few on tRant that will admit it was intentional. Ironically some of the more level headed ones. See, you have to understand the thought process of a OMRebalBlackBearLandshark. For them to admit it was intentional would also be to admit that they care so much for the rivalry AND would also bring expose the fact that it was their only way to win it. After years of passively blowing off asswhoopins at the hands of State it is a defense mechanism they use. Their call to arms is “LSU is our rival!” “We really don’t even care about the Egg Bowl!” Admitting the truth would destroy their only way to sleep at night.
My personal belief is that their boosters paid them to do it. They certainly could have been coached to do it too but having grown up around Ole Miss fans I know how they roll. And putting bounties on players is certainly in their wheelhouse.
I think they were stuck with Luke no matter what happened in the Egg Bowl.
No one wants to coach somewhere that is on probation and has boosters that still demand that they run things with recruiting to the point where cheating is openly glorified. Unless you are an alum of that school like Luke.
There is no reason AT ALL to dive into a players legs like that when he is already wrapped up by another defender.
I hate to buy into conspiracy theories and whatnot, but I certainly wouldn't be surprised if they put out bounties either. I doubt it was the athletic department, but I can definitely see some rogue booster or even someone close to their team drumming up deals like that. Underhanded shenanigans like that are in their blood because people who genuinely think they are "above" someone else (like OM fans toward State fans) get angry and spiteful if they feel their perceived importance is threatened. State was having a good season while they were having to weather the NCAA because of something they REALLY think State started. They HAD to win the Egg Bowl at any cost and save any more embarrassment. Or rather, they simply wanted some sort of revenge.
Long story short: OM fans are egotistical dipshits.

Judging by the rest of the responses, sixpack is the place for me. Thanks for your opinion though.
It's that actually at the point of contact? If he's 1-2 yards in front of Fitz and moving towards Fitz's right foot, then that picture is a split second before contact was made. On the ankle that got destroyed.
I don't know what the league could do. Gates and Speaks were seniors and ole miss wasn't in postseason play.
The right ankle is the one that got destroyed. I've watched the video a bunch. He lunged at the left ankle with his elbow, missed, and rolled up the right ankle. He intended to destroy the other one and accidentally messed up the right one.
