Is it ironic that on a week we are to give thanks, so many are thankful that #HateWeek is here?

The game is on Saturday at Oxford (2:30 p.m. kickoff on CBS), but the whole week before the Egg Bowl is what so many Mississippi State and Ole Miss fans love. It's the week you've been waiting for ... and it's the week they've been waiting for. Time to sharpen up the needling and to take out the trash talk.

And if you yell "Hotty Toddy" in your sleep, this is the page for you. (Click here if you've ever illegally parked your tractor at The Junction).
