Dan Mullen is about to lead Mississippi State into their sixth straight bowl game. That’s an impressive feat that many pundits didn’t think possible at MSU, and only four other SEC schools can currently boast. The outcomes of all five previous bowl games have been the same as the Egg Bowl that year. Will things change this year?
Quick refresher:
- 2010: beat OM 31-23 and beat Michigan 52-14
- 2011: beat OM 31-3 and beat Wake Forest 23-17
- 2012: lost to OM 41-24 and lost to Northwestern 34-20
- 2013: beat OM 17-10 and beat Rice 44-7
- 2014: lost to OM 31-17 and lost to Georgia Tech 49-34
If the current trend holds up, which would be losing the bowl game by about the same margin as the Egg Bowl, then MSU should expect to lose to N.
