Trophy update - Upset in Mississippi

 Mississippi dominate Trophy-holder Georgia 28-10 to secure the jiMpossible-sarcasMike Trophy.

This moves Mississippi to 46-15-5 all-time in Trophy games. The Rebels are on a bye this week then travel to the Swamp to face Florida before hosting Mississippi State in the Egg bowl to close out the regular season.

  • This is the Rebels 6th time with the trophy
  • They last held the Trophy for 3 weeks in 2021
  • Prior to that all they Trophy success with in the 50s and 60s
  • With the trophy on the line, Mississippi is 0-1 vs. Florida and 4-0-2 (both ties maintaining the Trophy) in the Egg Bowl
  • College football Network lists Mississippi as the 2nd most likely team to make the SEC Championship game 
    • Texas 46.32%; Ole Miss 16.51%; Tennessee 13.7%..
  • If the "most likely" match-up occurs it would give the Longhorns a chance to win back the Trophy they lost to Georgia.

Michigan vs Indiana prediction based on end of times

I used to post about how few people have actually seen Michigan lose to Indiana. Even the loss in 2020, was not seen by many people in person...

But that changes this week - a full crowd and a large tv crowd will witness it tomorrow
