Seriously, can it get any better than last year’s Egg Bowl?   Rebel fans were SO sure they had this one in the bag.  State was forced to start a third string quarterback and the Rebel narrative for weeks was that Mullen’s recruiting had caught up with him and that the program was headed south.  But Dak Prescott surprised everyone by coming off the bench in the fourth quarter and leading the Bulldogs to first tie the game in regulation, then score the go ahead TD in overtime.  And if that wasn’t good for you, what happened on the final play had to be one of the most memorable finishes of all time.
