It appears that maybe Alabama has been sandbagging because they are just running it all over Vandy. 28-0 already.

@Carter, dude, this Alabama team when they play like this is unbeatable. But they hadn't shown this kind of performance yet. No way they lose to Miss State playing like this. They're just dismantling a great defense.

I promise you they never had a shot. The fact you thought so after the LSU game shows why you wait and don't jump to conclusions.

It wasn't just based on Mississippi State. It was also based on the fact that Alabama had played 3 games and hadn't looked anywhere near the way they looked today.

I don't know why you're so intent on trying to pick a fight with me about this. Even if I am wrong, who cares? Why does it matter so much to you? Why are you obsessed with trying to prove me wrong about everything here lately? I just don't understand. I'm not one of those "I'm always right and you're a complete dummy if you don't agree with me" type people. I could see you doing this to one of those type of people but I admit that I'm wrong all the time.

"I think Mississippi State has the goods to beat Alabama this year.."

@Falconsfan567 

Thats exactly what you said.

"I think Mississippi State has the goods to beat Alabama this year."

That's a long, long way from "Mississippi State will beat Alabama this year."

The first one is giving them a shot. The next sentence is a guarantee. I never made a guarantee.

Alabama will smack them dude I promise you. I'm just saying you have a tendency to over react to things.

I just wanted you to finally admit to it. You've been denying it. Chill and look at everything before making assumptions man. It's like those guys who freaked after the Falcons vs Bears

Ok. Fine. Whatever. You win. I don't know what your deal is with me but I hope your happy. You're right and I'm wrong. Oh man. Whatever. It's the end of the freaking world. Whatever. Have a great day.

Carter, you know as well as anyone that teams can flip the script in college football in a heart beat. It happens on a regular basis that teams that folks thought were great in the summer end up falling flat on their face, while other teams come out of nowhere. I believe Miss State is one of those "out of nowhere" teams this year.

Yes, I realize who they have played, but I also realize that Alabama hasn't looked nearly as unbeatable in their 3 games this year as they normally do against the cupcake portion of their schedule. They look like a team that will have their struggles against a good defense, which they'll see Saturday at Vandy. I'm also aware that they gave up 23 points to an average Colorado State team. Now there's no way I expect Vandy to win but I think their defense is good enough to keep it close for a while.

Also, one think Nick Saban's Alabama teams have struggled with over the years is mobile QBs. Nick Fitzgerald is a very mobile QB, whose's passing skills seem to be improved over last year. I would still pick Alabama to win that game but it wouldn't surprise me to see Miss State pull off the win.  The game is in Starkville which will help them if they can get it as a night game and get that crowd into it like they were against LSU.

@Yo_Lover This one. The one where I said I would still pick Alabama to beat Mississippi State, because I never guaranteed a Miss State win.

Yeah, kinda my line of thought about it. Bama has been this pretty consistently, reloading every year and having a top tier team. They get the benefit of the doubt. Miss State is a flash in the pan riding hype. We should find out tonight if there is much substance, but even if they beat UGA I doubt they will be much trouble for Bama.

One thing about Bama... they are pretty much money on the road. I think the great majority of their regular season losses under Saban have come at home.

Very good point.
