Mississippi State players celebrate 2013 Egg Bowl win |
This year's annual Egg Bowl game between Ole Miss and Mississippi State shapes up as one of the most anticipated in the long history of the series. It's been a historic season for both teams, as they have spent much of the year unbeaten, ranked in the top five in the country, and thinking about a national championship. The Rebels' championship hopes have taken a hit recently with two straight losses and the devastating injury to receiver Laquon Treadwell.
Fans can only hope that this year's game, played November 29 in Oxford, matches the drama, excitement and intensity of the 1983 game. That game played in Jackson is still talked about more than 30 years later by players, coaches, and fans of both schools. Brad Schultz and Terry Smith look at a game that has come to be known as The Immaculate Deflection. To see the story, click here.
