Mississippi Veterans Memorial Stadium Mississippi Veterans Memorial Stadium is an outdoor football stadium in Jackson , Mississippi , USA . Veterans Memorial Stadium is the home field of the Jackson State University Tigers . As of July 2011 , Jackson State University owns and operates the stadium . The stadium also plays host to the Mississippi High School Activities Association state championship football games every fall and other special events , and it has hosted several NFL exhibition games . The stadium hosted an NFL preseason game between the New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts on August 26 , 2006 , in which the Colts won 27 - 14 . After initially being built in 1941 with stands on both sides of the field , the northwest corner was bowled in 1980 to increase the seating capacity to its current size ( about 62 , 000 ) ; until the recent expansion of Vaught - Hemingway Stadium in Oxford , Veterans Stadium was the largest sports facility in Mississippi . Historically , Ole Miss , Mississippi State and Southern Miss ' s college football teams regularly played selected important games there . Most notably , the annual Egg Bowl contests between Ole Miss and Mississippi State were held here until the early 1990s . Mississippi State and Ole Miss played " home " games there almost every year in the 1960s and 1970s as the stadium ' s size and accessibility proved more profitable than playing at home . The Mississippi legislature , also in Jackson , encouraged this . Two noted games were both major upsets for the Mississippi schools . On September 17 , 1977 , Ole Miss beat eventual National Champion Notre Dame 20 - 13 . On November 1 , 1980 , Mississippi State shocked the undefeated and defending national champs Alabama by a score of 6 - 3 . Shortly after the 1980 expansion , however , both Ole Miss and Mississippi State decided to enhance their on - campus stadia to develop the same home - field advantage of their fellow Southeastern Conference members , and gradually stopped playing games in Jackson altogether . The last game played there by an SEC school was a blowout win by Ole Miss over Division I - AA VMI in 1996 ; the Rebels ' last conference game at Jackson was a 1993 win over Arkansas . Mississippi State ' s last home game at Jackson was a 34 - 22 victory over LSU in 1990 . Southern Miss made regular appearances as well , playing both UM and MSU as well as games against such schools as Texas A & M . The stadium continues to host the annual Capital City Classic between Jackson State and Alcorn State University , both of the Southwestern Athletic Conference . The stadium has also been home to numerous concerts , most notable being New Kids on the Block at the height of their fame . The 1993 Drum Corps International World Championships were held here as well .

Old Oaken Bucket The Old Oaken Bucket is a traveling trophy awarded in American college football as part of the Indiana – Purdue rivalry between the Indiana Hoosiers football team of Indiana University and Purdue Boilermakers football team of Purdue University . It was first awarded in 1925 . Purdue leads the overall series 72 – 37 – 6 . The Boilermakers have won 13 of the last 16 games . Purdue won the 2012 contest 56 – 35 in West Lafayette . History of the Trophy . The concept of a trophy for football games played annually between Purdue University and Indiana University was first proposed during a joint meeting of the Chicago chapters of the Indiana and Purdue alumni organizations in 1925 : During that meeting Indiana alumnus Dr . Clarence Jones and Purdue alumnus Russel Gray were appointed to propose a suitable trophy . At a subsequent meeting in Chicago Jones and Gray recommended some oaken bucket be that trophy and the chapters drafted the resolution that : Purdue alumnus Fritz Earnst and Indiana alumnus Wiley J . Huddle were appointed to find a suitable oak bucket . They found such a bucket at the then Bruner family farm between Kent and Hanover in southern Indiana . Although the bucket might have been used at an open well on the Bruner family farm that had been settled during the 1840s , the Bruner family lore indicates that the bucket might have been used under General John Hunt Morgan ' s command during the Civil War and might have arrived at the farm after one of the Bruner men returned following completion of their military service . In accordance with the Chicago alumni organization ' s resolution , the winner of the bucket gets a " P " or " I " link added to the chain of the bucket with the score , date and the city where the game was played engraved on the link . In case of a tie , an " I – P " link was added . The inaugural Old Oaken Bucket Game ended in a 0 – 0 deadlock on November 21 , 1925 , in Bloomington resulting in the very first and most visible link , an " I – P " link , being added to the handle of the bucket . The poem " The Old Oaken Bucket " . The name of the trophy refers to a sentimental poem written in 1817 by a successful printer and publisher , Samuel Woodworth ( 1784 – 1842 ) which begins : Although Samuel Woodworth was not from Indiana , the poem exemplifies the sentiment felt by the people of Indiana towards their home state . The poem was set to music in 1826 by G . F . Kiallmark ( 1804 – 1887 ) and memorized or sung by generations of American schoolchildren ; it made the poet ' s unpretentious childhood home in Scituate , Massachusetts the goal of sentimental tourists in the late 19th century . Game results . The 1903 contest , scheduled to be played on October 31 at Washington Park in Indianapolis , Indiana , was canceled after one of the trains carrying the Purdue football team struck a coal train near 18th Street on the north side of Indianapolis . In all , 17 Purdue football players , coaches , alumni , and team supporters were killed in the Purdue Wreck .
Donnie Davis Donnie Davis ( born December 16 , 1972 ) was the starting quarterback for the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets in 1993 and 1995 . He would eventually become a quarterback in the Arena Football League playing for the Arizona Rattlers , the Milwaukee Mustangs , and the Georgia Force . College . Davis ' s college career began in the wake of the 1990 National Championship run under Head Coach Bobby Ross . Davis redshirted in 1991 and would await the graduation of star quarterback Shawn Jones through his redshirt freshman and sophomore seasons . Bobby Ross would leave before Davis ' s sophomore season and Bill Lewis was appointed head coach . The team , 2 years removed from a National Title , only won five games and finished the 1992 season with a 5 - 6 record . Davis in 1993 was looked upon as a new hope for the Georgia Tech faithful . His redshirt sophomore campaign began with a thrashing of Furman but over the next three games Georgia Tech would be outscored 102 - 27 . Davis would finish the year with a 5 - 6 record and a loss to archrival Georgia . Bill Lewis wanted a spark for his wilting team so he recruited junior college transfer Tom Luginbill from Palomar . Luginbill came in from a wide open pass offense where he tossed for over 7 , 600 yards and had won 21 games in two years . Luginbill would eventually take the starting job from Davis after Davis got injured in spring practice . Donnie was a favorite amongst the team on and off the field , which further compounded the issue . Several Georgia Tech players saw Luginbill ' s appointment as an insult to their former coach and national title team . Luginbill ' s first two efforts in 1994 saw Georgia Tech narrowly lose to then # 1 Arizona and demolish Western Carolina . Then , the team began a downward spiral as death threats against Luginbill and racial divide may have split the team into small quarreling factions . Luginbill ' s career ended at Georgia Tech with a 1 - 10 record and the firing of Coach Bill Lewis . Lewis was replaced by defensive coordinator George O ' Leary . After Luginbill transferred to Eastern Kentucky , Davis and O ' Leary began a major rebuilding of the Georgia Tech football program that would lead Georgia Tech eventually back to playing in bowls and competing at the highest level in the ACC . Davis over his career compiled an 11 - 11 record with over 4 , 000 yards of total offense and 29 total touchdowns . He is remembered for his athleticism and steadfast nature during some of the darkest times in Georgia Tech football . Professional career . Davis would go on to be one of the most successful passers in Arizona Rattler history . He would win the Most Valuable Player of Arena Bowl XI in 1997 , where Kurt Warner was the opposing quarterback . After football . Donnie retired from arena football in 2001 and has worked in the mortgage banking industry ever since . Davis plans on graduating from Georgia Tech in 2009 with a Bachelor of Science in Management . He is currently an intern at both the Southern Company and for the Georgia Tech department of athletics , and has also started a LinkedIn group for Georgia Tech football letter winners
