Egg Bowl 2025: Ole Miss vs. Mississippi State prediction, odds

College Football HQ prediction

Mississippi State is 93rd in college football in total scoring defense and has allowed at least 40 points in three of its last four games, all losses, and surredered 35 in a win against Arkansas.

Ole Miss has the speed and variety to skirt past the Bulldog defense with relative ease and essentially book a ticket to the College Football Playoff.

Which should be their primary focus as a program, if not for the drama around Lane Kiffin.
