00:00We got Ole Miss and Mississippi State in the Egg Bowl.

00:02I don't even want to set the table for this.

00:04I am just going to ask you what this spread line is,

00:07because my goodness, it could take 10 minutes.

00:10Well, I think most people on Friday, and this is a noon kickoff,

00:15are going to be more interested for this game to hurry up and be over,

00:18because that's the new level of intrigue that we have

00:21with the Lane Kiffin Express, the impending decision.

00:25This has got shades of like the whole LeBron thing

00:28with the Miami Heat, right, back in the day.

00:30Like, where's Jim Gray?

00:32Is he showing up here at the Egg Bowl to interview Kiffin afterwards

00:36for the announcement?

00:38The reality is this line opened up right around six, six and a half,

00:43and we've seen it move up to about seven in a lot of spots.

00:47But there is a little pushback.

00:48Why?

00:49Because it's a huge distraction for the Rebels.

00:52You've got to be kidding me.

00:53They already have in the back pocket, they know,

00:56win and you're in the college football playoff.

00:59You don't have to play in the SEC championship

01:00if they win this game, and heck, not even if they don't win this game.

01:05They're likely in the college football playoff.

01:08So what are you going to get from a locker room

01:10that is waiting, just like everyone else,

01:13whether or not Kiffin is going to be there next year,

01:16or heck, is he even going to be coaching them

01:19during the postseason here?

01:21So I would not be shocked if this line continues to move

01:25towards Mississippi State.
