#STATEtoSundays: Conference Championships Preview
January 25, 2026 | Football
No matter the result of the NFC Championship, a Mississippi State alum will be playing in Super Bowl LX.
Former first round draft picks Charles Cross and Emmanuel Forbes will be on opposite sides of the field on Sunday as the Los Angeles Rams visit the Seattle Seahawks at 5:30 p.m. on FOX.
The Rams and Seahawks split their regular season matchups. Forbes and the Rams secured a 21-19 victory at home on Nov. 15 while Cross' Seahawks edged out a 38-37 win at Lumen Field just over a month later in Week 16.
Cross (foot) and Forbes (shoulder) both left their respective games during the NFC Divisional Round last weekend but are expected to play on Sunday.
