1914 Game

[edit]

Arkansas lists (in their records) the 1914 game as a forfeit, but Ole Miss lists it (in their records) as a win by a score of 13-7. Source #1 (from 2004, the totals have changed now), relevant part:

The Series
According to Arkansas folks, the Hogs lead the series 27-23-1.
However, Ole Miss disputes the series record, scripting it as a 26-24-1 Arkansas advantage.
The difference is the 1914 matchup in Little Rock, won 13-7 by the Rebels. Arkansas called foul, claiming an ineligible Ole Miss player participated, so the Hogs count it as a forfeit. Ole Miss discounts that and none of the players involved in the game are living.

Source #2 (from 2006), relevant part:

Arkansas claims a 28-23-1 series advantage, counting a forfeit victory in 1914; Ole Miss lists the series record as 27-24-1, choosing to go with the 13-7 on-field score in a game played 92 years ago.

If you Google "1914 ole miss arkansas forfeit", you can see a lot of other sources saying the same thing. So, the question is, what should it be listed as? Cardsplayer4life (talk) 06:27, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Rivalry?

[edit]

This article is interesting considering most Ole Miss fans don't really consider Arkansas a "rivalry" and certainly not in the sense that Ole Miss has pure hatred for Mississippi State and LSU. The only thing in recent memory that makes the Ole Miss/Ark games hightened is the 7 OT game and Nutt being at Ole Miss now. - ✰ALLSTAR✰ echo 06:21, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I guess it is the amount of times that the two teams have played (and consecutively since 1981 even when in different conferences) and the recent Houston Nutt stuff that has led most people to consider it a rivalry. Who knows why teams consider each other rivals, haha. I agree with you, though, that it is more of a minor rivalry, not raising to the level of, say Arkansas-Texas, Georgia-Florida, Ole Miss-Miss St, etc. Cardsplayer4life (talk) 06:49, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I imagine the games will of course be much more heated now, and us Ole Miss fans will back up our new coach in so much as wanna beat Ark with force.. but if Nutt don't win many games, we'll be begging for Ark to take him back and showing nothing but love for our SEC brethren across the state line. haha. - ✰ALLSTAR✰ echo 07:04, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I am an Arkansas fan, so while I wish you the best of luck with all your other opponents, I am pulling for my beloved Hogs. I think Nutt is a definite step in the right direction for your program and will win a lot of games for you guys. I was definitely not a Nutt hater as much as a lot of my friends were, but I certainly don't think he would be welcomed back no matter how much begging was done, haha. With just a cursory glance at your schedule, I think you guys have a strong chance of starting the season at 4-0 with Memphis, Wake Forest, Samford, and Vandy, which would get the fanbase energized I am sure for the rest of the schedule. (5th game is against Florida in Gainsville, though, which is tough for anyone) Anyway, good luck in the upcoming season. Cardsplayer4life (talk) 00:40, 11 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
