Locked On Ole Miss and Locked On Mississippi State kick off the inaugural Egg Bowl crossover. As Ole Miss hunts for a playoff berth and Mississippi State battles for bowl eligibility, Steven Willis and Jaren Spore debate which playmakers—Trinidad Chambliss, Keon Lacy, Daquan Wright, Brennan Thompson—will shape the rivalry’s outcome. Is this matchup a coronation for Ole Miss, or could a five-win Bulldogs squad spoil everything?

Key questions include whether Blake Shapen or Kamario Taylor will get the nod at quarterback for Mississippi State, and how Lane Kiffin’s program can silence critics and reach a historic milestone with a home playoff game in Vaught Hemingway Stadium. The hosts break down defensive matchups, Mississippi State’s fast starts, and the electric atmosphere at Davis Wade Stadium. Will the Egg Bowl decide the future of both head coaches and put Mississippi football on the national map?
