Ole Miss' Nutt Gets Even Nuttier With "Blue Out" Against Alabama

Senior Writer Written on October 07, 2009

Houston Nutt is calling for a "Blue Out" to help psyche out Alabama with such a unified sea of blue around them. This is what he has for a game plan?

Uh Houston, we have a problem.

Do you not remember last year when Georgia "Intimidated" Alabama with their now famous "Blackout" game?

Alabama fans and players were laughing over the "They wore black to their own damn funeral" comment made by an Alabama coach.

Do you not remember last month when Penn State was going to break the Iowa jinx and staged a "Whiteout"? The results were the same as Georgia's.

Sure you had a lame attempt at "Blueout" last year against Auburn and won, but there were two problems with that "Blueout." First of all, it was hit or miss on participation and secondly, with Kodi Burns at QB in that game, you really didn't need any extra help.

Alabama's beaten black, they'll beat blue, they'll beat the Rebels black and blue.

Instead of planning a "Blueout," why not spend that time devising a way to move the ball on Bama's defense?

The degree of blue you see in the stands will be a degree of support you have from the fans, so it will be interesting to just how much "Blue" there is in the stands.

And it will be interesting to see what the next "Nutty" thing to come out of Oxford will be.
