FINAL: No. 7 OLE MISS 38, MISSISSIPPI STATE 19

Ole Miss 38, Mississippi State 19 9:50 4Q

Chambliss finally connects on the deep ball with Deuce Alexander hauling it in then shedding his defender to go 88 yards for the score. That might be the dagger.

Ole Miss 31, Mississippi State 19 10:40 4Q

Bulldogs show some life and fight with Taylor escaping a sack or two and scampering for a 35-yard touchdown drive. 2-point try failed.

Ole Miss 31, Mississippi State 13 13:46 4Q

Stribling with his second highlight-reel touchdown of the game and Rebels are up three scores. That felt like the dagger.

END OF THE 3RD QTR: No. 7 OLE MISS 24, MISSISSIPPI STATE 13

Ole Miss in Mississippi State territory on a drive that feels like the ‘make em’ quit drive’ if the Rebels can punch it in here.

Ole Miss 24, Mississippi State 13 6:43 3Q

Carniero drills a 43-yard field goal to get the three points back, but the Rebels should have had seven there.

Chambliss and Wallace saw it the whole way and had a touchdown but Chambliss throws it a bit high through Wallace’s hands on third down. Missed opportunity there.

Ole Miss 21, Mississippi State 13 10:01 3Q

Second half gets underway but the Ole Miss defense is unable to the Bulldogs off the field and force a punt. But it does get the next best thing, if there is such a thing, by holding Mississippi State to a 36-yard field goal

First Half Stats

HALFTIME: No. 7 OLE MISS 21, MISSISSIPPI STATE 10

Back shoulder throws were the order of that drive and Chambliss hits De’Zhaun Stribling for a 10 yard touchdown pass. Rebels go into the break up two scores.

The Rebels offense finally returned to the field and Chambliss looked much better. Cayden Lee is finding something in the Bulldogs secondary.

Ole Miss 14, Mississippi State 10 1:45 2Q

The defense is doing all it can to keep State from the end zone and after a long run by Bouthwell it holds the Bulldogs to a 40-yard field goal attempt that is good.

Offsetting personal foul calls and the pass was ruled incomplete. But another overthrow by Chambliss forces another punt. Rebels should’ve downed it at at the one yard-line but let it go into the end zone.

Well after trading punts and kind of lulling everyone to sleep a good old fashioned Egg Bowl fight breaks out after Chambliss is hit and the ball comes out, initially ruled a fumble but being reviewed. Refs are stil meeting about the extra curriculars after the play.

A quick three-and-out for Ole Miss as Chambliss overthrows two receivers and has another incomplete. Wasted chance there for the Rebels

After Taylor gets a long run into Rebels territory a tipped pas falls into the waiting hands of Princewell Umanmielen for the takeaway.

A rough sequence to start the second quarter. Chambliss and his receiver miscommunication on second down. Then a false start makes it a third and long that does not convert. Luca Carniero then misses a 37-yard field goal try.

END OF THE 1ST QUARTER: No. 7 OLE MISS 14, MISSISSIPPI STATE 7

Ole Miss goes for it on 4th and 2 at the Bulldog 32 with Lacy getting it plus some on a nine-yard run.

Rebels defense holds and forces the first punt of the day when Taylor’s third down pass sails out of bounds to nobody. Bulldogs receiver ran a straight vertical and never looked for the ball.

Ole Miss 14, Mississippi State 7 5:22 1Q

Trinidad hits Wallace for the 24-yard touchdown pass on a tremendous throw. He’s up to 97 passing yards in the first 10 minutes

Chambliss looks great to start and dealing with the ‘noise’ pretty well. Rebels are getting what they want on offense for the most part.

Ole Miss 7, Mississippi State 7 8:49 1Q

Taylor caps a 10-play drive that went 97 yards with a 22-yard touchdown rush to tie it back up

The only way this stays a game is if the Mississippi State offense can have success in the passing game. That drive there were three key passing plays that kept the drive going with Kamario Taylor at quarterback.

Ole Miss 7, Mississippi State 0 13:05 1st Qtr

Ole Miss won the toss and elected to receive. Took all of 5 plays for Lacy to get the run game going with a 31-yard touchdown run to put the Rebels in front early.

Chambliss had a great third down pass to Harrison Wallace for 34 yards to keep the drive going.

The Egg Bowl has arrived and not a moment too soon for Ole Miss fans after two weeks of a coaching soap opera drama with Lane Kiffin has dominated the college football universe.

No. 7 Ole Miss (10-1, 6-1 SEC) is looking for its third straight win over Mississippi State (5-6, 1-6) and second-straight win in Starkville. But more importantly a win can make program history with the first 11-win regular season and a College Football Playoff bid all but locked up.

The Kiffin drama will be settled on Saturday, or is “expected” to according to a statement last week from athletics director Keith Carter. But for now, all focus is on keeping the golden egg trophy in Oxford for another 365 days.

On the injury front Antonio Kite is out after returning for the Florida game two weeks ago. Kite suffered an injury in the Oklahoma game and missed South Carolina and The Citadel. The Ole Miss secondary will be down a starter today.

The Rebels are currently 7-point favorites over the Bulldogs on BetMGM.

Kickoff is set for 11 a.mm. CT on ABC. Keep it here once the game starts for highlights, score updates and more.
