Are you insinuating that there is a difference?

We save our officials for the rare game we could lose, not needed

They will most likely bring their own crew. But, they will let them go at halftime because they will no longer be needed.

I think refs were more favorable to Saban than Bama.

Last three meetings in Starkville:

Bama: 6 penalties for 40 yards; MSU: 3/15

Bama: 6/60; MSU: 6/25

Bama: 7/86; MSU: 5/37

Gonna have to ask AI for a more convincing excuse when you get those cheeks clapped tomorrow.

We got worse calls when Saban was at BAMA. Not just our flags, but several years we were last in the nation in opponent's penalties, and a couple of years we were in the bottom 10 in that category.

The SEC screwed us multiple years with playing way more teams coming off of bye weeks as well. One year, believe it was 2010, we played 6 SEC teams in a row coming off of bye weeks.
