Carter’s Jewelry of Petal, MS, is just daring hometown team Southern Miss to defeat Mississippi State in their September 5th opener.
You see, if Southern Miss defeats its in-state big brother, Carter’s will give a full refund to anyone who bought jewelry from them in August.
CBS Sports’ Tom Fornelli pointed out that history indicates a more level playing field than one would assume. The Bulldogs hold just a 15-12-1 all-time advantage, although Dak Prescott and company routed Southern Miss, 49-0, in Starkville last season.
Anyway, Carter’s must feel pretty awful about the home team’s chances.
