Photo: Davis Wade Stadium vandalized on Friday night
Mississippi State administrators woke up Saturday morning to an unfortunate sight.
Davis Wade Stadium was vandalized on Friday night, with the perpetrators tagging the building with pro-Ole Miss graffiti:
Davis Wade Stadium was vandalized with graffiti last night. MSU AD John Cohen has no comment at this time. It's an ongoing investigation.

There are cameras all around the stadium. Those will obviously be looked at. pic.twitter.com/voIbbrfhW9

Fortunately for Mississippi State, it looks as though the graffiti should be fairly easy to either cover up or remove. Still, it’s disappointing that rival fans felt the need to vandalize a school’s stadium.
As noted by Clarion-Ledger reporter Michael Bonner in the tweet above, the stadium has plenty of security cameras, so the perpetrator (or perpetrators) could be caught quickly.
guarantee it was one of their fans trying to make us look petty. State is obsessed with OM. I’m a lifelong rebel fan and have never seen a rebel fan take things as far as their fan base, for what that’s worth. We just don’t care about State.
Are you retarded?
Nah I’m not a state grad
Savage!
Did your mom have any children who lived
That’s funny. Which school got into a bowl game because of their academics and which one is sitting at home this postseason?
55-20….. Nice one. Ole Miss fans are mad and are completely embarrassing the S.E.C. They went from Sugar to shi*. It’s laughable to think all Reb fans are classy. Maybe about 25 of them….maybe.
You are completely wrong. No MSU fan would do this to our stadium. This is exactly what I would expect out of losers. Get used to it because the next number of years is going to get really ugly in Oxford.
No I’m sorry ColRebForever, the correct answer was “I hope they catch who did this”. Though you didn’t win today there is a consolation prize for total douchebags. Expect in the mail.
55-20. Ncaa sanctions. Years of mediocrity ahead. Must hurt to be a stinking rebel these days.
Coming from a MSU Student/fan:
1. I don’t think a state student did it
2. I think your second point is correct State fans hate Ole Miss way more than Ole Miss hates State. I am currently in school and it’s honestly obnoxious. Not saying that I haven’t run into some obnoxious Ole Miss fans because they do exist as well
So State is obsessed about tsun, huh?!? Who’s reading and commenting about who’s stadium? As always, GOTHOM.
You sir, are a grade A tool.
Whoever did this deserves what they get. But I will say it’s very possible this was done by their own. There are plenty of cases for example anti LGBT “hate messages” that were proven to be done by the victims. If it was an Ole Miss student I really do hope they get the proper discipline. No room for this. Not many fans I know proudly say “hotty toddy” and why would they make it blatantly obvious who their team was? Either way the person responsible is a low life.

Ole Miss still mad about the egg bowl?
The majority of us didn’t really care. Our season was over either way. The only thing we would’ve gained from a win was a trophy and a bad bowl game. I personally haven’t even cared. They beat us. They deserve it.
Yeah right! Didn’t care my butt. No-one and I mean no-one is buying that. You might add well get ready to not care for several years.
So you control my thoughts? I personally didn’t care and don’t care. Like I said above you guys won. It’s a game. Not a way of life. Maybe you should do some self analysis and stop living through a group of college teams on the field success.
He definitely cares. To say the opposite is transparent and you’re right. No one is falling form that crap. He takes time out of his day to sign up to an SEC football site and an Ole Miss logo but doesn’t care that his team lost to their biggest rival, by lost I meant embarrassed.
rriffe-
The moment I saw you wrote “no-one” I thought it was a typo. But when you did it again, I realized you were a retard with internet service.
Well, there you have it folks. According to two people I’ve never met, I care. They know more about me than I do. Just because I follow my team and signed up for a free site that takes 5 minutes to sign up for, I must always care and let it eat at me 24/7. I mean you’re a Bama fan so I understand. You have to live through your team. It’s your only way to feel validated.
Really? So now you take a shot at Bama fans? You’re crying saying people don’t know how you feel or think yet you said “the majority of us didn’t really care” You’re trying to speak for other people and tell us how others feel…… Mississippi has nothing going for it. If a Bama fan has to live through their team as you say I feel sorry for a dumba$$ like you.
Alright look: we don’t know who the perpetrator is just yet, and overall this is a minor incident that doesn’t reflect any fan base. But when the only thing ole miss fans have to say on the article so far is “bet it was a state fan”, it makes you look really really bad. Even if you end u0 being
Right, your initial reaction suggests that you DO care. Things like the way I read and hear ole miss fans talk to state fans make it really hard to feel bad for their current situation……
Ok so has this rivalry really come to this? I mean it’s probably gonna be some @sshole who has no life that did this. if it was a ole miss fan it’s no true Rebel fan I hope he gets put in the middle of MSU’s campus so they can throw tomatoes or something at him.
It’s ridiculous either way. NO fan base is perfect and I can guarantee as much as we’d ALL like to think our fellow supporters or our respective teams wouldn’t do something like this, a$$holes come in ALL affiliations. The fact that the initial response by some is to blame the opposing fan base REALLY shows your class (thanks COLREBFOREVER). I hope they do find whomever decided this was a good idea and hold them accountable accordingly. Aside from that, I hope State has a good bowl game, a good offseason, and I look forward to a better year next season…..for BOTH schools…..State more than Ole Miss though.
Whoever did this deserves what they get. To think our own fans did this is asinine. First of all we don’t need to do this to make u look bad. Y’all did that just fine yourselves this season, of course the 55-20 helped put the cherry on the topping. Next, I guess y’all will blame us for putting the noose on the statue a few years back and I’m sure we put the mask on Tunsil and took the pic of Kelly smoking weed. And col reb, to blame us for this and say you don’t care about state but then post this on our site…you sir are proof that idiots exist!
True.
~I LOATHE pretty much everything about msu but this is beyond stupid. Although overall, it looks like it’s minor stuff that can be repaired/removed…the fact of the matter is that it’s still destruction of property! There is no need for it – EVER & I hope they catch the idiots who did it – then punish them. If ‘fans” of Ole Miss are responsible for this I hope they are caught & punished. This is tacky & classless and not the actions of people who are the True/real fans of Ole Miss.
(~ Also, to the UM fans on here saying that the EB doesn’t/didn’t matter…you are full of BS. If it didn’t, you wouldn’t be on here trying to write it off as insignificant ~ Just shut the hell up about it and quit embarrassing yourself/other Rebels any further. )
The Egg Bowl matters. I simply said I didn’t care about this egg bowl. No I don’t care when we lose. It matters sure. But I don’t let whether my team wins or loses effect my life. If we win, great. If we lose, I don’t care. Not every fan lives their daily lives through a football team. I love the sport, but I’m allowed to not care if my team loses.
No…. You said the majority of Ole Miss fans didn’t care….. Let’s not lie….
Thanks to some Ole Miss fans showing some class. Poking at opponents in a good natured way is just a part of the fun, but there is class and there is a lack of class.
This isn’t suspicious at all.
I have been a die hard State fan my whole life! I also have other family members who are Ole Miss fans. As a SEC fan, we are a little classier than to act the way some of you are talking and pointing fingers! With that said, yes I always love Egg Bowl season, love the trash talking and hopefully the bragging rights for the year! Whoever did this will be caught, but what disturbes me is some of the comments on this page. Accusing A State fan of doing this, or accusing an Ole Miss fan of doing it is wrong on all levels. I do appreciate the fact that the Ole Miss AD came out and said that they are disturbed that this was done. Pointing fingers does nothing for anyone! There is video evidence, so let them look at the footage and make the arrest.
There’s nothing wrong with accusing an ole miss fan. Unless u know another team whose slogan is hotty toddy! I mean if they wrote war damn eagle, then we accused ole miss that’d b inappropriate. Big picture is we don’t know who did it but the hotty toddy says enough that upon first guess, an ole miss “fan” is the suspect. Doesn’t mean ole miss sanctioned it or that ole miss fans condone it just that a “fan” of theirs prolly did it.
Poor lil rebs, just can’t take being curb stomped in the Egg bowl.
