"Nothing sucks like a big orange"

If there were black bears in Mississippi, they would eat oranges... That is all.

If that is the most creative "insult" rival fans can come up with... They needn't quit their day job...

UT, home of the perennial Cock Beaters... :)

I think Alabama chose Tide so they would have a weekly reminder in the fall to wash their clothes... Only logical conclusion I can draw

When I hear roll tide all I can imagine is a sea of menstrual fluid

When I see the LSU tiger I picture it eating corndogs.

So to the poster above I agree stupid rivals are stupid.

My cliff notes version is some sports writer homers 80 years ago called you the elephants and your science department elected to pick an algae bloom as your other. Despite the fact your 180 or so miles from the coast there in tusk-a-loser and however many 1000 miles from Africa.

Proof positive that fact really is stranger than fiction.

You mean rival fans like the ones who call themselves the Tide but have an African elephant as a mascot? Or the ones who are the Tigers but chant "War Eagle!"? Or the ones that somehow think that screaming "pig sooey!" is somehow intimidating? Or the ones who's official trademark is cut off rustler jorts and a wifebeater? Or the ones in the ridiculously talent rich state of Georgia but perennially get beat by better teams with players that they took from Georgia? Or the ones with a chicken as their mascot? Or the ones that always yell, "wait till basketball season!" but still can't win the big one even though they're running a NBADL franchise? Or the ones that are so ignorant they can't find their way out of the most backward state in these great United States, Mississippi? (or the ones that make it out live in Memphis cause they think Memphis is a nice place to raise a family) Or Vanderbilt? (self-explanatory)

Remind me again why we give a crap about what rivals say about us?

Nicely done, gotta give credit when due.

For what its worth, I've heard worse things when joking about UT.

The word "Volunteers" can be very useful when making jokes.:)

Leave it a bammer to have trouble formulating a response that is no better than something my 3 year old could come up with.

That was a pitiful, pathetic attempt at a response, even for a bammer.

PS: Just confirmed, Bryant is still dead

As opposed to your rapier wit? Dragging out the same tired line that vols and barners have been beating to death for 28 years wouldn't qualify as clever in my book. But if convincing yourself otherwise helps you get through the day, then keep running with it.

An Ole Miss fan called us the elephants, not a sports writer, and the science department had nothing to do with the selection, and the "Crimson Tide" has nothing to do with the natural phenomena you mentioned.

I thought it was because of Bama's old equipment trains having a white elephant painted on the side and being painted crimson. Also, a reporter said the football team "rolled over [someone] like a crimson tide".

You have the second part right.

The elephant part comes from a column about a Bama-Ole Miss game in the early part of last century. The Ole Miss fans were said to be praising the size of their football team during pre-game warmups, but when the Alabama team took the field, one Ole Miss fan shouted "Hold your horses! Here come the elephants!"

Confusion over how the sun works?

Or how to peel an orange and eat it.

Funny part about the later is that means they are sucking us???

Either way the pun is B-low-me

Correction on the title then:

"Nothing gets sucked like a Big Orange."

What a fine tale! I continue to be blown away at the deep meanings and traditions of that fine school.

Can you tell us the meaning behind the school hauling the NC trophy down to Walmart? I'm eager to learn more.
