What we predicted: 

Zach’s prediction: Mississippi State 24 Ole Miss 20

Tom’s prediction: Mississippi State 30 Ole Miss 27

Nathanael’s prediction: Mississippi State 33 Ole Miss 20

Mississippi State didn’t control their own destiny in the SEC West going into Saturday. All Alabama had to do was win to clinch the SEC West. But had Mississippi State beat Ole Miss, their college football playoff hopes would still be alive.

Ole Miss, a team that had looked despondent in recent weeks, didn’t have a lot to play for on Saturday night. Just bragging rights and the ability to ruin the Bulldogs’ season.

Apparently that was enough for the Rebels.

Ole Miss might not be a factor in the college football playoff, but they still had a damn fine season.

As did the Bulldogs.
