Misery Index · Uneasy
A three-point win over Louisville, and the loudest grievances were a kicker flag and a mascot ad.
The emotional rollercoaster
Ole Miss fans’ misery during the game, every 15 minutes. Up is worse.
What happened
A 41-38 win over Louisville moved Ole Miss to 1-0, and the fanbase celebrated by complaining for three straight days. The turning point was a roughing the kicker penalty that handed Louisville life nobody wanted it to have, and that flag is still being litigated in group chats: "That roughing the kicker… smfh." By the fourth quarter the misery had broadened into commercials, where one fan declared "that shithead yellow fuzz ball" especially annoying. Winning, apparently, is not the same thing as enjoying yourself.
