Struggling Ole Miss fan goes viral ahead of game vs. Kentucky
Ole Miss is hosting fellow unbeaten SEC squad Kentucky in an early game on ESPN on Saturday in Oxford.
That means some Ole Miss students had to get up early to start tailgating, probably after a long night of partying on Friday night.
That led to one struggling Ole Miss fan going viral on Saturday morning during ESPN’s College GameDay. As you can see below, he was sitting in the stands with his head dipped with an hour left before kickoff:

Naturally, fans and media members had plenty to say about the struggling fan on Twitter. Here was some of the reaction:

The best part about this is the fact that when taken, there’s still over an hour before they kick off…long day ahead bub… https://t.co/QizMwLvU27

The first half of the Kentucky-Ole Miss game has been exciting, though, with both teams playing well. Perhaps that has injected a bit of life into the student pictured above.
