The Mississippi State Bulldogs simply don't have the firepower on either side of the football to keep pace with the Mississippi Rebels. Our early Mississippi State vs Mississippi predictions are calling for a lopsided renewal of the Egg Bowl.In one of the most hate-fueled rivalries in college football, Mississippi State travels to Oxford to take on Mississippi in the Egg Bowl.
It’s just hard to imagine a world where the Rebs don’t hang 40-plus on Mississippi State. Mississippi is the No. 2 team in the country by SP+ with the No. 8 offense thanks to future NFL players like QB Jaxson Dart. Mississippi State’s offense just isn’t going to be able to keep up to cover in this one. I have Mississippi taking it 42-13.I’m fairly surprised that this game total is so high. Sure, Mississippi is poised to score against this awful defense, but getting to Over 61.5 points means that Mississippi State is going to have to put up close to 20.
While the Bulldogs’ offense is better than its defense, it’s still just 68th in SP+ and ranks outside the Top 60 in both EPA per rush and EPA per dropback. And the offensive line is in for arguably its toughest challenge of the season. To make matters worse, Mississippi’s defense is even better against the run than the pass . The Rebels allow the second-fewest rushing yards per game in the country .
