Why Ole Miss can cover
The Rebels enter this matchup with a 9-2 overall record with their only two losses coming once morest the top two teams in the SEC –Georgia and Alabama. Ole Miss can likely lock up a spot in a New Year’s Six bowl game with a win, and the Rebels will surely be out for revenge following losing last year’s Egg Bowl 24-22. Moreover, keeping their in-state rival from reaching bowl eligibility will likely serve as added motivation for the Rebels.
Ole Miss has a high-powered offense that will be hard for Mississippi State to contain if the Rebels get rolling early. Quarterback Jaxson Dart has played at a high level, completing 66.4% of his passes for 2,889 yards, 19 touchdowns, and five interceptions, while also rushing for 347 yards and seven TDs. His top target has been wide receiver Tre Harris, who enters this matchup with 44 catches for 824 yards and eight touchdowns. Running back Quinshon Judkins (933 yards, 14 TDs) might go over the 1,000-yard mark for the season in this matchup. See which team to pick at SportsLine.
Why Mississippi State can cover
Mississippi State is in the process of finding its next full time head coach, but still has plenty to play for in the Egg Bowl 2023. The Bulldogs will become bowl-eligible with a win, which would extend their streak of qualifying for bowl games to 14 years. A win would also give MSU back-to-back wins in the Egg Bowl for the first time since 2011.
Mississippi State has an above average rushing attack that showed major signs of life in its first game under interim head coach Greg Knox. In their win over Southern Miss, the Bulldogs rushed for 238 yards and averaged 5.3 yards per carry. Running back Jo’Quavious Marks leads the team with 534 rushing yards and four TDs.
