Mississippi State and adidas unveiled new TECHFIT football uniforms for the Bulldogs' upcoming games, "The Snow Bowl" versus Texas A&M at home on November 3 and "The Egg Bowl" against Ole Miss in Oxford on November 24.

The game was originally publicized as a reunion game, since Mississippi State coach Jackie Sherrill had served as A&M's coach for six seasons in the 1980s and led them to three conference titles. However, the weather quickly dominated the story line as a rare and significant snowstorm hit Shreveport. In the midst of the snow, Mississippi State rallied to an overtime win over A&M.
