Everyone other than Bama fans wanted to be witness to Bama losing.

America's team, Alabama has 3 of the top 10 most-watched games this season including #1.

The Iron Bowl will pull in big numbers.

How serious is the loss of Ross Pierschbacher to a high ankle sprain? Those injuries are hard to overcome quickly, so I doubt he'll be 100% for the Iron Bowl.

It was a great game. Hoping Aub-Bama is just as good with the same result

Of course, Mississippi State does have a very good front seven this season


About 30 points better than L7U

And Alabama failed to cover the spread in both games. I'm really looking forward to the Iron Bowl. If the War Eagles play like they did in rolling Georgia, Bama is in trouble.

We don’t have a Jonathan Allen on the DL this year.


But you guys have Da'Shawn Hand. I thought he was supposed to be all-world?

And losing Allen doesn't explain why LSU and Mississippi State held their own against Bama's O-line. Hell, in both games Hurts got sacked 10 or 11 times. I can just about imagine what Clemson's pass rush is going to do to Hurts.

DSOR is the highest rated SEC matchup of the year. But we all know the Iron Bowl will top that.

You're giving Clemson too much credit. State easily has a better front 7 than them.

Probably had a lot to do with that game being over in the first quarter.


The Miami - ND Game still got a 4.5 rating even though it was over in the 1st Quarter. Not bad at all.

Great day to watch college football yesterday.

It's symptomatic of good football and an entire nation hoping bama loses. bama is big money for a reason. it isn't just because people like them.

Fitz grew up last night. But close losses are still losses. That is a bad way to lose.

He will be hungover against the Hogs. Y’all will only win by 35 instead of 49 points due to the hangover. frick Bielema.

The thing that has surprised me lately is how Alabama is being beaten at times on the defensive and offensive lines. They don't seem nearly as dominating here as they've always been in the past. Of course, Mississippi State does have a very good front seven this season, but even LSU, with two freshmen playing on the offensive line, was able to get the better of Alabama's D-line fairly often during that game.


Not taking anything away from our guys at all, but with the injuries at LB, it was a little easier for blocking assignments last night.

BTW, we only played one senior last night and had our top three receivers out to match Bama's LB injuries.

I think we will be more competitive the next couple of seasons.
