This Mississippi State basketball game is at home in Starkville in the Hump.

Piggybacking off of that last one just a bit, Ole Miss hasn’t really been all that good against Mississippi State in recent seasons. And that’s definitely seen when the Rebels try to beat the Bulldogs in Starkville.

The last time that Ole Miss was in Starkville, on January 11th, 2018, Mississippi State enjoyed a 31-point win. On January 16th, 2017, the Bulldogs beat the Rebels by 11 points. Back on January 18th, 2016, Vic Schaefer and Mississippi State defeated Ole Miss by 28 points.

So yeah, in recent years, the Bulldogs have absolutely had no issue taking care of the Ole Miss Rebels. That’s especially true when Mississippi State meets up with Ole Miss in the Hump.
