Ole Miss Loses to Rival Mississippi State in Brutal Fashion After Celebration Penalty

Matt Bush-USA TODAY Sports

Mississippi State beat rival Ole Miss, 21-20, in the 2019 edition of the always-heated Egg Bowl in one of the most memorable ways possible.

A thrilling final minute of action included the Rebels converting on 4th-and-24 from their own 14 when backup quarterback Matt Corral found Braylon Sanders for a 57-yard gain. A series of penalties then brought Ole Miss to just outside the Bulldogs' goal line when Corral connected with Elijah Moore for a two-yard TD with four seconds remaining.

It looked like the game was bound for overtime, but Moore proceeded to celebrate by miming a dog peeing in the end zone.
