Podcast: The ‘Sip in the Super Bowl.
Podcast: The ‘Sip in the Super Bowl.
Mississippi annually has a presence in the Super Bowl, but never before quite like this Super Bowl Sunday when the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles play for the NFL Championship. Eight native-born Mississippians dot the rosters of the Chiefs and Eagles. That’s more than any other state including much more populous Texas, Georgia and Ohio, which tie for second with seven. Tony Woolfolk, Fletcher Cox’s high school coach, joins us to talk about how Yazoo City, a town of 10,000, produced two Super Bowlers in Cox and his Eagles teammate Kenny Gainwell, and why Mississippi continues to produce so many of football’s greatest players.

Super Gnat, all 5 feet, 6 inches and 154 pounds of him, took the NFL by storm in the last 1960s with his blazing speed and quickness on kick returns.

Lots to talk about on the days after the national championship game, but in Mississippi, especially in Oxford, much of the talk is about what might have been had Judkins stayed at Ole Miss. Also, the Clevelands discuss Egg Bowl basketball, the grueling SEC schedule, the NFL playoffs, and John Wade’s saga at Southern Miss.
