Double Coverage: Ole Miss Rebels and Mississippi State Bulldogs sports talk

Wednesday marked the beginning of the new early signing period for football. Ole Miss and Mississippi State both made out pretty well. The Rebels were aided by a couple of flipped commitments (10:22), including Callaway defensive end James Williams (from MSU) and California quarterback Matt Corral (from Florida). Corral is a four-star prospect with a live...

New Mississippi State head coach Joe Moorhead continues to add to his staff, while Ole Miss must deal with the loss of its former starting quarterback. Those are just two of the topics discussed on this week’s episode. Logan looks at the hires Moorhead has made thus far (1:08). The former Penn State offensive coordinator recently...

Mississippi State and Ole Miss both have their head coaches in place, but that doesn’t mean things are settled at either school. New MSU coach Joe Moorhead is still putting together his staff (2:40), and he’s doing so while the current coaches prepare the Bulldogs for their bowl game. Moorhead & Co. are also trying...

Big coaching news came out of both Oxford and Starkville earlier this week, and Parrish and Logan break it all down on this episode. Ole Miss has removed the interim tag from Matt Luke’s title, making him permanent head coach (3:09). The hire hasn’t sat well with all of the fans, but under the circumstances,...

Double Coverage comes to you a few days early this week, due to the annual Egg Bowl being played on Thursday. Ole Miss is looking to finish the season at 6-6, while Mississippi State goes for a 9-3 mark and a good bowl slot. A big part of this game, of course, is the matchups...

Two games remain in the season for Ole Miss, and they are important ones for interim head coach Matt Luke. Parrish notes that beating Texas A&M this week could make Luke a serious candidate to be permanent coach (7:29), and beating MSU in the Egg Bowl wouldn’t hurt his chances either. Parrish believes the Rebels, who are...

Mississippi State has the pleasure of hosting Alabama this week. Logan previews the matchup (3:21) and doesn’t figure MSU has much of a chance. Alabama limited QB Nick Fitzgerald last season, and it’ll likely be tough sledding again given how many State receivers are out with injuries. And Bama, as usual, has a strong and...

Mississippi State’s season is shaping up nicely, as the Bulldogs are now 6-2 following last week’s dominant win at Texas A&M. On this episode, Logan looks back at that game (5:48), which saw MSU continue to play strong pass defense (3 interceptions) while performing well on offense despite some injuries. Up next is UMass (4:26),...

It was a good weekend for Mississippi State and a very bad one for Ole Miss. The Bulldogs thoroughly dominated Kentucky (4:43), with Nick Fitzgerald showing improvement in his passing. Ole Miss, meanwhile, not only lost to LSU, it lost starting QB Shea Patterson to a season-ending knee injury (8:24). That means juco transfer Jordan...

Mississippi State and Ole Miss both picked up wins last week and look to build on that this Saturday, as both face tough matchups. MSU will take on Kentucky (2:54), which won last year’s meeting on a last-second field goal. Logan examines the matchup (11:36), and he says the Bulldogs need to be cleaner on...
