Have you ever been to StarkVegas?

(be honest)

Many a team heads there thinking an automatic win, only to come away with beating (knocking them out of a Natty later) or a loss. If it helps, imagine traveling to kansas and getting you team beat up like a rag doll no matter the final score. tGrind is real and any SEC team can vouch for it. You think Bama is good at taking out Utx QB's, just wait to see who is injured for the season after a trench warfare in Starkville.

Since most have never been to Starkville in their life (or the state of Mississippi) they clearly have the element of surprise for the home team. Oxford came to drink when you visit, but Bulldogs came to play.

If you have never been to the Egg Bowl my suggestion is to put it on your bucket list like a weekend trip to Michie. The rivalry has sort of mellowed in recent years but for old folks, it may be the best rivalry in the country for pure hate yet for love when either team has a run of bad fate.
