Ole Miss vs Mississippi State
The Egg Bowl, which is one of the most historic rivalries in the SEC, will take place in the last week of the 2023 college football season. Last year, Ole Miss had just suffered two straight losses and appeared to be in a low-morale state into the Egg Bowl. The Rebels are entering this year’s rivalry with a much more positive outlook after splitting their last two games against the best and the worst teams in the country.
A New Year’s Six appearance is on the line for Ole Miss football. Bowl eligibility is on the line for Mississippi State.
However, the Egg Bowl always means more another victory. At Davis Wade Stadium on Thursday night, the Bulldogs (5-6, 1-6 SEC) take on the Rebels (9-2, 5-2) for state bragging rights.
Throughout the season, the Rebels’ defense has been their biggest strength. However, Ole Miss still has a potent offense. At home, the Rebels average 36.5 points per game, while away they average just 23.5 points.
Ole Miss’s defensive success is largely due to its pass rush, and Mississippi State allows 2.4 sacks per game to FBS opponents. In their past three games, the Rebels have only managed three sacks, putting them tied for eighth in the nation.
