For a lot of fans (not all) in the state of Mississippi, the Egg Bowl is the entire football season….every year. That goes for both sides – it’s all about bragging rights over your neighbor. And that’s fine.
I’ve honestly never been in this camp, although my Ole Miss hate is strong to quite strong. Losing to them does not spoil the season nor does it make the season. But since we started Maroon and White Nation in 2010 I been able to see just how important the Golden Egg is to so many MSU and Ole Miss fans.
