Greg Knox ignites social media with 4-wheeler entrance for Egg Bowl
Greg Knox is fired up to lead Mississippi State into the Egg Bowl for the Thanksgiving rivalry vs. Ole Miss! He was so fired up that Knox decided to lead the team into the stadium on a 4-wheeler for Thursday’s game.
Asked about his decision, Knox said Thursday is all about handling adversity and facing tough things in life. It’s “a life lesson” per Knox.
“This is about handling adversity. Opposition. When you face things that are tough in life,” said Knox. “This is a life lesson. And that’s what we’ve learned in the 11 days I’ve been here. This is a life lesson.”

Whether you loved or hated Knox’s entrance with the Bulldogs likely depends on which side of the rivalry one falls on. However, the entrance was fiery and could be something that ignites Mississippi State in search of a win over No. 12 Ole Miss.
It was certainly an entrance that ignited social media Thursday night:
Greg Knox will go down as an Egg Bowl legend for that entrance.

All interim coaches should do stuff like this. What if Bob Gregory led the Dawgs out in the helmet car in the 2021 Apple Cup? Who knows where we would be now. https://t.co/lQubBTkVZF
