Following a particularly chippy Egg Bowl last Thursday, SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey has called upon Ross Bjork and Mississippi State’s director of athletics John Cohen to attempt to create “a healthier environment” in future Egg Bowls.
Last week’s 35-3 victory by Mississippi State over the Rebels culminated in a bench-clearing brawl that resulted in four ejections. This is just the latest in a rivalry that has consistently turned out hostility and aggression from both sides.
