Ole Miss and Mississippi State have met on the gridiron 117 times with the Rebels officially leading the all-time series 63-46-6 after the NCAA put its hand in results from both teams.
The game has been fought in seven cities across the Magnolia State (Oxford, Starkville, Jackson, Tupelo, Clarksdale, Columbus and Greenwood) and has always been an important meeting for both fan bases. The Golden Egg was born in 1927 after a brawl between fans ensued the previous year when Ole Miss fans rushed the field after ending a 13-game losing streak to then-Mississippi A&M.
