Because the SEC presented us with this well earned trophy. Sad that we never played in the game but at least we won the West once.

Fitting that Ole Miss’ biggest accomplishment in football in decades is a “shared” division title.

Ole Miss is always the bridesmaid and never the bride

Jokes aside about the validity of the title, it's hilarious to me that the SEC was just giving out blocks of wood to its division winners.

Co-champions aside, with all the money the SEC makes, you would think they could come up with a nicer trophy?

Sharing a division title isn't winning the west. If you didn't play in Atlanta you won nothing.

Not much better than our game trophy. Loser of LSU OM should have to keep that ugly thing instead of the winner.

Hell, they’ve never even made it to the wedding reception.

I could make a nice bench out of that if y'all ever decide to get rid of it.

Can't we just throw them both in the burn pit and replace the trophy with,I dunno, a 10 liter bottle of soco or something?

Hey, there's nothing wrong with harbor freight's hand sander.

Just stay away from their jackstands.

Don't let it go unnoticed that the lettering looks like the same font used for iron-on homemade T-shirt lettering in the late 70s/early 80s. Disco era stuff right there!
