Mississippi State’s seniors don’t want to go out the same way they came in. The memory of their first Egg Bowl has been a sour taste on the back of their tongues for the last four years, one they can’t and may never get rid of, though this Saturday may afford them an opportunity.
Their very first Egg Bowl, MSU went up to Oxford in 2012 having won three-straight in the Battle for the Golden Egg. It was only a few years, but the Bulldogs were undefeated against the Rebels under Dan Mullen and it seemed a lifetime since the last Ole Miss victory.
