There shouldn’t be any questions about which team is currently better coming into the 2018 Egg Bowl. The Mississippi State football team is 7-4 at the moment while Ole Miss currently has a record of 5-6. In Bill Connelly’s S&P+ rankings, the Bulldogs sit at No. 11 while the Rebels are at No. 57.
MSU has been better than Ole Miss this year up to this point, but that doesn’t mean that this team is invincible. Especially when playing on the road.
The Mississippi State football team has struggled quite a bit when it comes to playing away from Davis Wade Stadium in 2018 and most of those struggles have come against SEC opponents.
