After another frustrating loss to the Alabama Crimson Tide, 24-10, the Ole Miss Rebels find themselves once again underachieving against a team that many thought they should have beaten, especially this year.
But frustrations overboiled Saturday night when former Rebels quarterback Bo Wallace got into a beef with some Ole Miss fans. It seems as if Wallace was upset about how he was treated while he was in Oxford.
In now-deleted tweets, Wallace said after the Rebels loss “and yall was mad at me.”
Wallace was the last Ole Miss quarterback to defeat Alabama in 2014. The Rebels’ head coach at the time was current Auburn head coach Hugh Freeze.
But Wallace was dragged at the time by Rebel fans for his erratic play. And apparently to this day, he’s upset about it and hasn’t forgotten the lousy treatment by certain fans.
Some Ole Miss fans stood by Wallace’s comments and understood why he was so upset.
Who had Ole Miss fans being mad at Bo Wallace tonight on their bingo card?

I watched Bo Wallace get heckled by some drunkard walking out of Swayze at the 2014 Regional and Bo said nothing. Talk ya shit Bo. https://t.co/crn3VeJ72Q pic.twitter.com/LU04fAk1fE

Other Rebel fans were upset that Wallace chose that moment to drag his school after another loss to Alabama.
Guy, you’re the OC at a high school in Mississippi. Quiet down.

It sounds like Wallace was just upset that while Rebel fans and Lane Kiffin try to anoint Jaxon Dart as the next “great one” who would take out Alabama, it was Wallace who was the last guy to do it. And he doesn’t want fans to forget it.
