A&M, but hear me out. State will enter the game playing a much tougher team than they have seen all year. It will be a shock and difficult to keep under control at first. They will let Bama get an early lead that they can never make up. Game ends 28-21, Bama.
This difference is that we're used to playing Alabama year in and year out. We last beat them in back to back victories in 2006 & 2007. Granted, that was only the beginning of The Process, but Saban is not unbeatable.

Just because A&M's top prospect is rated higher than MSU's top prospect doesn't mean that A&M has a better defense. Thats retarded.
A&M is more likely to beat Bama than State, but I dont think either will do it.

Alabama
I think after an emotional game against LSU, that A&M could catch us off guard. They are a good team, no doubt, but even though CNB is being facetious, his answer is correct.

Tennessee was the only team with the offensive personel to Challange the Bama Defense. A&M has the O-line, but not the QB or WRs.
Bama will score atleast 30 on everybody.

Because State does things like keep teams from scoring very many points, and force lots of turnovers.
aTm does things like getting 57 points dropped on them in regulation. I don't think that's happened to MSU since the Spurrier years at Florida.

Over the last decade when OU and tu were knocking off ten win seasons we managed to beat them... You're bragging about beating the worst Bama teams in 50 years.

Why is State's D considered good?
Maybe because this is our 3rd yr in a row to be in the top 21 in the nation in Scoring D?

When you schedule scrubs OOC and have Kentucky and Ole Miss on the schedule every year, and Bama, LSU, Arky, and Auburn have had their wins locked up by half time, that isn't hard.

my rant $.02. I think MSU is the more complete team as far as balanced offense and fully integrated coaching staff. What I don't know about MSU is their overall depth and how well they are tested
What aTm has going for them is the position in the schedule. that LSU game wears on me (my knees ache the next day from the contortions), I can only imagine what it's like to play in it...Bama's and LSU's Nov 10 opponents have an advantage generally over others on their schedules. However, aTm seems JFF-centric and Cam Newton was the only one to pull that off. So....if MSU with a slight lead but if MSU had aTm's spot on the schedule I'd say a much bigger chance.

Doesn't matter anyway. none will win

state. they're built for it. y'all aren't. i keep saying your big 12 offense is not playing with the top teams but people are ignoring it. it wouldn't surprise me one whit if state beats bama; it would shock me in a&m does. they will kill your offense.

You might have a junior to get drafted higher than Banks. We have 5 seniors who will definitely be drafted, not to mention juniors that could possibly go. That is the difference, we have quality players from the ground up on defense. We have a strong program in the works, people who will tell you straight will tell you that the MSU that takes the field today is 100x better than MSU 5 years ago. Depth and talent in every class is something we havent had in a long time, and right now we have it. It isn't on the level of Alabama's but it is there.

Your defense is terrible and A&M is going to put up 50.

Dan Mullins can beat Alabama, we have the best secondary in the nation and also Russel who score touchdowns.

TeLeFaWx, I don't see Russel throwing 5 interceptions every game; unlike Johnny Interception. And unlike Texas A&M, we have a superior defense, Alabama has not faced a defense of our calibre before. We shutdown Tennessee, who has one of, it not the best offense in the SEC. So cry some more.

Troy is the toughest opponent you have faced.
