Egg Bowl History

The Egg Bowl dates back to October 28, 1901. It was an epic battle that resulted in Mississippi not showing up for the game and losing 17-0. We joke. They found their way to the game, but didn’t couldn’t find their way on to the score sheet. Since then, the two schools have battled tooth and nail for the Golden Egg trophy. A total of 111 meetings have taken place, 87 of which have been under the “Egg Bowl” label. While Ole Miss leads the overall series with a 62-43-6 record, the Bulldogs have won four of their last six meetings.

Betting on the No.19 Ole Miss Rebels (8-3, 5-2 SEC)

2015 Egg Bowl Predictions, Odds, Picks, Betting Line Preview

The team is coming off a big 38-17 win over the LSU Tigers and a decent defensive performance. The team shut down Leo Fournette (somewhat). They only allowed the star runner 108 yards in the game on 25 carries, which considering Fournette’s past performances this season, is a pretty big feat. Overall though, their run defense should not be very proud. They’ve allowed nine rushing touchdowns over their past three games, although their pass attack has been able to bail them out.

The pass defense is currently tied with Alabama for the conference lead with 15 interceptions – two of which came last weekend at home.

Over-Under: 64.0         Point Spread: -1         Money: -110

Betting on the No.24 Mississippi State Bulldogs (8-3, 4-3 SEC)

2015 Egg Bowl Predictions, Odds, Picks, Betting Line Preview

It could be a safe bet, if you’re thinking Bulldogs for the win. Dak Prescott has looked like a relentless rook of a man this season (chess reference). He’s thrown for over 3100 yards and has only tossed three picks so far this year – a number that looks even smaller next to his 23 touchdowns. He hasn’t only been a threat through the air though, Prescott has also rushed for 478 yards and nine majors in his 11 games so far this season. Simply some incredible stats from the kid.

If the Bulldogs are going to make a game of it, it’s going to come down to the arm and legs of Prescott. He’s the crown jewel of Mississippi State this season.

Over-Under: 64.0         Point Spread: +1         Money: -110

Writer’s Prediction

Ole Miss takes the Eggs out of Mississippi State’s basket 37-28.
