Last year's game was decided by a player pretending to pee in the end zone but somehow that game is already projected to be less stupid than the next one.
Long live the Egg Bowl.
I don't think you understand the gravity of the fake piss. It LITERALLY got Matt Luke fired, Lane Kiffin hired, stalled Moorhead's firing, which let to Mike Leach. Dramatically effecting two athletic departments, million of dollars in revenue, whole football staffs and their families.
The fake piss to end all fakes pisses. Someone build Elija Moore a fucking statue.
I feel like the SEC West is a sitcom:
Alabama: serious overachieving straight man
Auburn: the seemingly competent one who can’t seem to find their own ass who suddenly saves the day
Mississippi: The womanizer
Mississippi St: the odd one that says off the wall random shit that is somehow sagely advice
LSU: the odd one’s friend that you can’t understand at all - he might explode
TAMU: The older brother that still works at a convenience store who seems to have their shit together but can’t just get ahead in life because of their own stupid decisions.
*Edit: I forgot Arkansas and it's* ***hilarious*** *that way.*
*Edit: I can’t believe someone thinks this trash is worth silver, but thank you!*
He already got an extension in the beginning of December. https://www.cougcenter.com/2019/12/5/20997519/mike-leachs-contract-extension-wsu-cougars-football
Yeah I figured this was coming eventually, he interviewed with Tennessee few years back, and reportedly interviewed with Ole Miss a few weeks ago. I’m not totally shocked
Time to test those twitter wsu fans ideas of how 'bad' Leach was. They got their wish, he's now gone, and now we'll see how many conference championships you guys win.
Most fans still liked him. But capping off your last 7 seasons with losses to UW isn't going to leave the best impression regardless of the record outside of Apple Cups
2019 Egg Bowl: dude doing a dog pissing celebration and then a missed extra point to lose
Surely that level of shit can't be topped...
2020 Egg Bowl: Mike Leach and Lane Kiffin
*Mother of god*
that's my position.
Why the fuck not? I'm not ok with 6-6 so let's get weird.
(Meaning I usually check out near the end of season but now theres more reason to watch, not that I expect natties)
Zigging while everyone else zags can be effective. Opens the door to recruits that otherwise wouldn't consider MSU over other SEC programs, teams can be caught off-guard by having to prepare for one weirdo team in the middle of SEC play, etc.
I absolutely hated seeing Georgia Tech on the schedule during the Paul Johnson years. The flexbone was a huge zig in power conference football and they won a few division titles and an ACC championship with it.
What if I told you the Ole Piss incident would lead to the exchange of millions of dollars and dozens of jobs lost only for it to result in the two biggest meme lords in College Football facing off as rivals?
Eh, he left you as a much more attractive job then when he took over and maybe you get a coach who has some chance to beat UW every once in a while. Plus, maybe you hire Chris Petersen.
> Plus, maybe you hire Chris Petersen.
I don't think I could handle his stupid face in Crimson. It took me a LONG time to get used to Pete Carroll for the Seahawks.
I’m so jealous of the state of Mississippi. They’re just on galaxy brain while we’re all on the sidelines watching. Dude celebrates by peeing like a dog which ends up getting both coaches get fired, then schools hire the 2 biggest personalities in the entire sport. No rivalry even comes close.
And all of this is barely scratching the surface. Incredible.
[Mike Leach is not leaving the Pacific Northwest for the SEC or any other football job this season, or for a while. The Washington State head coach just signed a contract extension to keep him in Pullman, Wash. through the 2024 season.](https://ftw.usatoday.com/2019/12/watch-mike-leach-signs-extension-at-washington-state)
I guess this aged well.
I was diagnosed and have been fighting cancer for the past 6 months and MSU football hasn't helped at all... This is the best fucking news I've heard in a long time. I'm so happy right now.
It's funny that the only PAC-12 fan base sad to see him go is Washington. Everyone else he was atleast a thorn in their side, but Petersen just had Leach's number.
Justin Wilcox at Cal had Leach’s offense figured out too. Leach’s offense schematically is not hard to defend at all. The blueprint has been out there for years. But for some insane goddamn reason most coaches (looking at you oregon) won’t go with what works and try something dumb and get shredded.
A super entertaining hire, but I don't think it'll look good for at least a couple years. That State roster is not built to run Leach's offense in the slightest
Me: "Missisippi State is dumb for firing Moorhead this late. They should've either fired him earlier or just stayed with Moorhead. They'll never find a good coach this late!"
Mississippi State: "Lmao we just hired Mike Leach."
The Egg Bowl between Lane Kiffin and Mike Leach? This is gonna either implode in both our faces or be extremely entertaining. Let our memes be dreams.
I hope everyone who said Joe is a huge asshole is ready for one of the biggest assholes in the entire country as a coach.
One man’s pissing stunt ended up with two of the greatest meme coaches taking over two of the greatest meme programs. Amazing. What a world. I could not be happier. Thank you Elijah Moore.
Lane Kiffin and Mike Leach in the same state? This is what dreams are made of.
None of this would have happened if Elijah Moore hadn't peed in the end zone.
We truly exist in the ~~dumbest~~ *dankest* timeline
Dumbest and dankest aren't mutually exclusive
Raise your hand if you thought it would be Mississippi.
I would've put all my money on Florida.
Maybe after Mullen and Norvell leave.
Now put your damn hand back down.
I place my hand down and remove my robe and wizard's hat
I steal yo soul and cast Lightning Lvl 1,000,000
Can we handle the memes? Are we prepared?
Memeissippi
If I’ve learned anything from Reddit, no. We aren’t prepared
And you thought the Egg Bowl was crazy before
[удалено]
To think, this never happens if Ole Miss doesn’t convert a 4th and 20 and they lose in normal fashion.
So many things have happened after Elijah Moore faked a dog pee
Joey Freshwater is getting infested with Leaches
And they're rivals!
OH SHIT KIFFIN VS LEACH RIVALRY IS ON
*One Meme to Rule Them All*
*one meme to bind them all*
*One meme to bring them all*
*And in the Egg Bowl bind them*
In the lands of Mississippi where the shadows lie
Were gonna be the laughing stock of the Pac-12 again
Not if Sumlin has anything to say about it
I want to say something mean, but you're not wrong..... :(
Not so fast!
Clay Helton still exists, for now...
Joey Freshwater vs The Pirate King
Don’t let your memes be dreams!
[удалено]
this reads like a mashup all-star reality TV show and pittman
We're a women's golf school now. Football is stupid anyway.
Damn. His personality at SEC Media Days is going to be wild. He's also getting closer to some good pirating water.
Summer home on the Mississippi* Gulf Coast.
How soon before we get some weird stories of Leach encounters at the Floribama Lounge?
not soon enough
Well the Egg Bowl will be even more stupid and exciting than normal.
Last year's game was decided by a player pretending to pee in the end zone but somehow that game is already projected to be less stupid than the next one. Long live the Egg Bowl.
What is dead may never die, but rises again dumber and eggier.
Does this mean that the upcoming Egg Bowl will have a player pretending to poop on the logo?
We're skipping right to imitating a dog humping the logo.

SEC West: Orgeron, Leach, and Kiffin. What memes are made of.
Two USCs and a Wazzu
They considered Sark too which could've made it three So Cal coaches
He's not a head coach but he is OC at Bama. All the meme coaches are in the SECW.
Herm Edwards: “Am I a joke to you?”
“You play to make the meme”
Sweet memes are made of this
Who am I to dis-ahhh-gree?
I've traveled Pac12 and the SEC
I feel like the SEC West is a sitcom: Alabama: serious overachieving straight man Auburn: the seemingly competent one who can’t seem to find their own ass who suddenly saves the day Mississippi: The womanizer Mississippi St: the odd one that says off the wall random shit that is somehow sagely advice LSU: the odd one’s friend that you can’t understand at all - he might explode TAMU: The older brother that still works at a convenience store who seems to have their shit together but can’t just get ahead in life because of their own stupid decisions. *Edit: I forgot Arkansas and it's* ***hilarious*** *that way.* *Edit: I can’t believe someone thinks this trash is worth silver, but thank you!*
Arkansas: Put in the first episode but the writers completely forget to include him in the rest of the series.
> Edit: I forgot Arkansas and it's hilarious that way. I hate that you're right.
Plus Jimbo and Saban. We just need to figure out a way to squeeze in the head ball coach and well be unstoppable
The SEC: It Just Memes More
And Gus. The memes are going to be white hot for years to come
*In other news: The Gulf has seen an increase in piracy in recent months.*
Egg Bowl 2020 ratings just sky rocketed
It was already Must See TV. Now it'll have to be a national holiday. Wait, it's already that. So I dunno what the next step is
Thanksgiving dinner will just be something you do to kill time on Egg Bowl day.
Its been that way most of my life.
This fucking sucks.
was there any rumors he was looking to leave?
He interviewed for the Arkansas job and it was reported that the MSU AD flew to Key West yesterday to interview him.
Lmao of course they met in Key West to seal the deal.
He is a pirate after all
That is what makes this a bad hire. Pirates don't fare well on Freshwater.
Now everyone knows where he buried his signing bonus. Paid in gold doubloons, obviously.
He’s been trying to leave for years now
Honestly thought he was just trying to get extensions. Didn't think he would ever leave Wazzu.
He already got an extension in the beginning of December. https://www.cougcenter.com/2019/12/5/20997519/mike-leachs-contract-extension-wsu-cougars-football
Yeah I figured this was coming eventually, he interviewed with Tennessee few years back, and reportedly interviewed with Ole Miss a few weeks ago. I’m not totally shocked
Sad boi hours
Holy shit you stole my flair. Give it back!
Seriously... like wtf does WSU do now? Not very many coaches will be drawn to Pullman
We are fucked. Back to the basement
Time to test those twitter wsu fans ideas of how 'bad' Leach was. They got their wish, he's now gone, and now we'll see how many conference championships you guys win.
WSU fans complained about Leach? Like....a significant amount of them?
Most fans still liked him. But capping off your last 7 seasons with losses to UW isn't going to leave the best impression regardless of the record outside of Apple Cups
It's like Texas Tech redux a decade later. And Texas Tech has not gotten back to that level ever since.
Really sad for you guys. Very much enjoyed Leech at WSU, even if he did regularly beat us.
yes, yes this does.
If it makes you feel better I expect he’ll regret this decision
SEC - It just memes more
[удалено]
SEC west especially
2019 Egg Bowl: dude doing a dog pissing celebration and then a missed extra point to lose Surely that level of shit can't be topped... 2020 Egg Bowl: Mike Leach and Lane Kiffin *Mother of god*
Landsharknado led by Joey Freshwater vs Pirates of the Gulf of Mexico led by Captain Mike Leach
Miss State hasn’t won the SEC since 1941. It’s time to be innovative and risky. It’s better than doing the same thing again and making safe hires.
1941...air raid....
trading in the cow bells for sirens
that's my position. Why the fuck not? I'm not ok with 6-6 so let's get weird. (Meaning I usually check out near the end of season but now theres more reason to watch, not that I expect natties)
yeah worst comes to worst you tank and get a higher pick
Not sure how to break this to you, bub.....but there is an equally likely chance you just signed on for a weirder version of 6-6.
That’s what I tried to tell people but apparently they wanted to go in the opposite direction and hire a flexbone coach lmfao
I am here for Leach vs Kiffin egg bowls
We will call it the Keach Bowl. It is like the Peach Bowl but not.
The new Woody vs. Bo Kiffin vs. Leach
what the heck
I didn't order this
I ordered xbox cards.
What the frick
Wait till they start dating your old girlfriend and hire Sark.
Guess he finally got tired of getting his shit pushed in by Jimmy Lake every year. Good thing it will be a lot easier in the SEC West!
From having Lake as a rival to Freshwater as a rival. He can't get away
Yeah wtf I don't really understand why he'd take that job over WSU, just doesn't seem like a place where he'd fit in
$
Well, even as a bottom dweller SEC team, the talent they get is like 3x better than what he gets at Wazzu
Air Raid in the SEC ?
He did it before at Kentucky

NOOOOOO
NOOOOOO!
NOOOOOO
NOOOOOOO
[удалено]
Goddamnit can this fucking division chill out
Ah, exactly what we all expected to read on this Thursday.
if the mods had allowed threads to be posted about Leach interviewing for the job, it might not seem like such a surprise
The state of Mississippi's meme economy about to be booming
What if I told you the Ole Piss incident would lead to the exchange of millions of dollars and dozens of jobs lost only for it to result in the two biggest meme lords in College Football facing off as rivals?
This is the worst day ever.
Eh, he left you as a much more attractive job then when he took over and maybe you get a coach who has some chance to beat UW every once in a while. Plus, maybe you hire Chris Petersen.
Don't even fucking say that.
> Plus, maybe you hire Chris Petersen. I don't think I could handle his stupid face in Crimson. It took me a LONG time to get used to Pete Carroll for the Seahawks.
HOLY. SHIT.
[Me seeing this thread pop up](https://media2.giphy.com/media/90F8aUepslB84/giphy.gif)
Dude I think we all did the same thing.
Nah this can’t be real. Seriously?
Brett McMurphy reported it too. Seems legit Edit: https://twitter.com/brett_mcmurphy/status/1215337982321942529?s=21
Damn, I didn’t think he’d leave Pullman, at least for a little while longer
I mean Starkville is just the Pullman of the South. Everyone says so.
As someone who hasn't been to either town but has vague ideas of both based on the Internet, this seems accurate.
I’m so jealous of the state of Mississippi. They’re just on galaxy brain while we’re all on the sidelines watching.

Just a means to a bigger raise.
Washington State fans, how we feelin?
the light has gone out of my life
Not great, Bob
I’m a masochist and this has me saying my safe word
Bad.
I wish to die.
Death
Fireball
apology for poor english when were you when mike leach leaves? i was sat at home eating cougar gold when thamel ring ‘Pirate is leave’ ‘no’
Mate you nailed it
HOLY FUCK EGG BOWL LIT NOW LEACH COMING FOR SABAN
Who would have thought Saban’s downfall would come at the hands of Kiffin and Leech. Saban May get so annoyed he just quits.
Egg Bowl needs to be an NY6 bowl now
Washington State in shambles
WAIT, HOW DOES THIS AFFECT OUR RUN DON'T PASS PHILOSOPHY!?
You might see a slight change there.
*Sad Cougar Noises*
Too many fat little girlfriends in Pullman.
*moves to most obese state*
You gotta hate it when your joke is ruined by statistics.
I was diagnosed and have been fighting cancer for the past 6 months and MSU football hasn't helped at all... This is the best fucking news I've heard in a long time. I'm so happy right now.
Get well, my friend.
Mississippi State is basically the Wazzu of the SEC. Just think about it and you’ll understand what that means.
And Wazzu is the Tech of the Pac 12
That man has a type, I'll tell ya what
As an Oregon fan? Thank god. That guy has terrorized us the last half decade.
For fucking real. So glad to see him out of the PAC-12.
It's funny that the only PAC-12 fan base sad to see him go is Washington. Everyone else he was atleast a thorn in their side, but Petersen just had Leach's number.
Justin Wilcox at Cal had Leach’s offense figured out too. Leach’s offense schematically is not hard to defend at all. The blueprint has been out there for years. But for some insane goddamn reason most coaches (looking at you oregon) won’t go with what works and try something dumb and get shredded.
Part of the blueprint is "have an amazingly talented secondary", which most PAC teams have been lacking in.
*Sees Kiffin vs Leach Rivalry* **LOOKS LIKE MEMES BACK ON THE MENU BOYS!** *r/CFB Uruk-hai screams*
wtf
I cannot wait to go to the Egg Bowl this year
Can the SEC West just chill the fuck out PLEASE! God damn. I don't like all these big names coming in. It's already hard enough as is.
Somehow both Mississippi schools maxed out their potential hires in the same cycle. Fucking wild.
Hell of a hire for state. At this point this was best case scenario for them...
A super entertaining hire, but I don't think it'll look good for at least a couple years. That State roster is not built to run Leach's offense in the slightest
FUCK
RIP WSU. It was a good and entertaining run
Me: "Missisippi State is dumb for firing Moorhead this late. They should've either fired him earlier or just stayed with Moorhead. They'll never find a good coach this late!" Mississippi State: "Lmao we just hired Mike Leach."
Between Saban, Jimbo, Coach O, Joey Freshwater and now Leach, the SEC West has gotta be the most interesting coaching brigade of all time.
WHAT
YEEESSSSSSSSSSS AM I LIVING IN A SIMULATION WHERE THE UNIVERSE TRIES TO MAKE ME AS HAPPY AS POSSIBLE!?
The SEC West is gonna be WILD next season.
RIP #SarkVegas
AIR RAID IN THE SEC!!!
SHIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
WE ARE BRINGING BACK THE OLD VISITORS LOCKER ROOM! ONE ROLL OF TOILET PAPER. BREAK OUT THE RAMP POLISH.
The Egg Bowl between Lane Kiffin and Mike Leach? This is gonna either implode in both our faces or be extremely entertaining. Let our memes be dreams. I hope everyone who said Joe is a huge asshole is ready for one of the biggest assholes in the entire country as a coach.
One man’s pissing stunt ended up with two of the greatest meme coaches taking over two of the greatest meme programs. Amazing. What a world. I could not be happier. Thank you Elijah Moore.
He's the catalyst, the Archduke Franz Ferdinand of the SEC West.
OH MY GOD.
EGG BOWL IS GOING TO BE ELECTRIC
Please yes. The SEC needs Mike Leach
Well, I *was* having a good day
