Meanwhile in Oxford: surviving figurative heart attacks while watching the game

For any Ole Miss Rebel, football isn’t just a game we watch on Saturday. It is a religious experience, a spiritual journey. This weekend, the Rebs took us on an emotional rollercoaster ride I will probably tell my grandchildren about.

Have I recovered? Not yet.

But that’s okay, because, based on Parker Barrineau’s tweets, Alabama hasn’t emotionally recovered after a stunning Rebel Victory. How can one really describe the feels experienced during Saturday’s game?

The Pregame:

Everyone is tense. I had spoken to my father earlier on the phone, and he assured me Ole Miss has a good, fighting chance at victory.
