The Egg Bowl is an underrated rivalry when it comes to two programs and fan bases that basically hate each other.

Ole Miss Coach Lane Kiffin is looking to improve to 3-0 against Mississippi State, but a bigger storyline is whether this will be his last game as the Rebels’ coach before he takes the Auburn job?

Bulldogs Coach Mike Leach is trying for his first Egg Bowl victory in three tries.

It should be a high-scoring, wild, close game with Kiffin and Leach being two of the nation’s top play-callers.
