It seems there were some inaccuracies. http://www.gomemphis.com/mca/football/article/0,1426,MCA_478_2211678,00.html Sherrill hot about cool vests By From Our Press Services August 27, 2003 Mississippi State football coach Jackie Sherrill is miffed that Nike has provided Oregon with experimental vests the Ducks might use Saturday night to help stay cool when they play the Bulldogs in what figures to be warm and humid conditions. Sherrill said Mississippi State, which also has a contract with Nike, wasn't offered the equipment until he asked about it. The product, which was developed by Oregon-based Nike, is worn under the shoulder pads and weighs slightly more than a T-shirt. When connected to a sideline compressor, the bladder-like device blows helium into the players, according to Sherrill. That helium just ain't right, said Sherill to reporters Monday. That Auburn punter tried that a few years back but we caught on to his little game. Nike spokemen said Tuesday the vests were designed to pump dehumidified air onto the players, helping cool them. No helium was being used. They think we're stupid you know, responded Sherill. C'mon, man, dehumidified air? Like hell. They pumpin' helium in those boys to help 'em jump high and block kicks and stuff. Nike product scientist Alvin Haynes refuted Sherill's accusation as baseless. We are intrigued by Coach Sherrill's grasp of physics and the laws of gravity but we maintain that the vests are primarily for cooling, not an attempt at creating an artificial levitation advantage for the Oregon players. said Haynes. Saturday's forecast calls for a high temperature of 91 degrees and a low of 68 with a possible thunderstorm mixed in. Winds are expected to be 20-30mph from the south and southwest. Ah HAH, said Sherrill. Wind! THAT¹S gonna be their undoing! Them Ducks didn't figure on wind!

I hope that MSU pulls out the upset. I don't want any outsiders beating up on the SEC. It makes us look like wimps. I want the other conferences dread coming down here, even to play Vandy. RTR!
