Mississippi State graduate Joe Judge pays the price after losing Egg Bowl bet to Evan Engram
The Egg Bowl rivalry is alive and well in the NFL.
Case in point, New York coach Joe Judge paid the ultimate price a Mississippi State graduate can pay during his most recent press conference with the Giants as he was decked out in Ole Miss gear.
“Before I open it up for questions, I’ll explain this ridiculous outfit I’m wearing,” Judge said during the press conference. “This is the consequence of losing a rivalry bet with Evan Engram.”
Engram, now in his fourth season with the Giants, was a standout tight end for the Rebels from 2013 through 2016.
According to Judge, if Mississippi State had won the Egg Bowl, Engram was going to be forced to carry a cowbell all week long.
Of course, we all know that didn’t happen, as Ole Miss won the latest Egg Bowl 31-24.
