The first college football playoff rankings come out on Tuesday night. It was just two years ago when the first ever CFB playoff rankings were released and featured both MSU and Ole Miss in the top four:
Both programs have fallen off a bit. Mississippi State’s bowl streak is for all intents and purposes finished. Ole Miss will most likely enter the Egg Bowl at 5-6 and needing a win to secure bowl eligibility.
So while this game has been knocked back a few notches, it will still have a lot of meaning to the winner and the loser.
