It started off as a way to mock Starkville but MSU took it and ran with it

I'm not sure when or where it started, but switching -ville for -vegas is a long running trend in lots of cities.

Outside of Nashville becoming Nashvegas in some branding efforts. It is generally a joke like you said to make fun of the "big city" life of a small town that few have heard of outside on the regional area. Lots call Huntsville, AL "Huntsvegas." Its dumb, but a norm not unique to Starkville.
