Obviously we likely won't win barring a an upset, so what does State need to do in their performance against Bama in Ttown to earn respect as a good team?

MSU has to leave it all on the field, win or lose. Play hard and show no fear.

Keeping it closer than 20 points would be a good start. And over 250 yards of offense.

anything less than a win and its useless.....

MSU has played less of a schedule than A&M.....

No I'm just curious in other peoples mind what would be considered a respectable performance other than winning the game.

If we pull off an upset, it will be considered by many a fluke. If we lose, it was expected.

I just don't feel like we are going to be given any respect....we are going to have to take it.

I don't know if it's so much Bama, but you have to win games against ranked teams and do it for 3-4 years in a row. One year of 9-3 losing 3 games to the only ranked teams you play isn't quite "there yet". You can certainly only beat the teams on your schedule, but you have to maintain 9-10 wins a year and pull off some upsets over the course of several years to get respect.

Keep in mind, this is the SEC rant. Even undefeated National Champions get knocked for something. You will never get everyone's respect.

After your quarterback stands there with the ball and has no clue the rush is coming and he gets clobbered into another dimension, if you find all his body parts and gear in a timely manner that would pretty much do it for me.

Miss State already has my respect. They have a really good team this year--a great coach and a great defense.

Your program has had my respect since 1980

a few of your fans drive me batshit but that is the norm I do believe.
