I miss the Alabama Basketball Rivalry

Our basketball rival is Alabama. This generation of MSU fans are obsessed with making Ole Miss the main rival in every sport. Including sports where they are historically the worst.
Sure the peak of it was Gottfried vs Stansbury. Such classics. When the SEC announced State and Bama would play twice a year once again in 2016, I was thrilled. And 2016 lived up with a split. Howland vs Avery looked like a masterpiece. But Avery swept Howland 3 times last year. And it just does not feel like Howland or the team considers this a Rivalry game.
The two closest SEC schools are rivals in this sport and Howland needs to realize that losing to Alabama is more unacceptable than losing to Ole Miss. State has lost 8 of the last 9 since Stansbury left. I'm tired of losing to this group. And a win is needed for postseason hopes. We're 6 point underdogs. And it just feels like we don't care. If this doesn't work out, we need a coach that understands that Alabama is rival #1.

we need a coach
That would have covered it, I'm over Howland.

There isn't any excuses of being this bad.

Because it's our next game and I need to see the emphasis of this game once again. Big home game. Gotta win. Going on the road two straight and none of those are garunteed with this team. Bama has owned us since we got rid of Stansbury. Gotta hold sever at home and get a much needed win. Have we turned a corner? I'll be fully 100% on board with a win on Tuesday. Let's get it!
