Ole Miss vs Mississippi State Prediction
The Mississippi State Bulldogs don’t do anything well, and they could easily get rocked. However, Ole Miss is pretty much out of the playoff convo after a loss to Florida and left that game with a lot of injuries. Also, the underdog has covered 5 of the last 8 Egg Bowls. Mississippi State is 4-0 ATS this season as a double-digit underdog, and Ole Miss has lost 2 of its last 3 games as a double-digit favorite. This is a lot of points, and this rivalry means too much to think the Bulldogs will just roll over. Give me the road dog.
