@@ryantompkins9816 lol y’all act like this defense was stopping everybody. Pass rush on this team was average and coverages were consistently busted. 2019 D was poor, true. But 2020 & 2021 were top ten defenses as well
Coming from a Mississippi State fan, this game was sooo heartbreaking. But also such a good game. I was so proud of our boys and how they played. Unfortunately play calling got us beat. Plus, Bama just showed up at the end and deserved the win. Hail State For Life. Here's hoping this year's game is just as good.
Most Alabama fans probably wouldn't agree but last year would've been a way better game than 24-0 if Nick Fitzgerald wasn't playing in that game. It was fine with Dan Mullen in this one because his offense is built around running but he didn't fit Joe Moorehead playbook, who likes to throw more than Mullen. It sucks because the defense played Bama tough and held them to 24 points when they could've easily scored 40-50.
I remember the Tide going into Starkville back in 1992 in a similar situation. It took late guts and heroics to pull it out, this was just the tonic Alabama needed then and now.
Our missing linebackers really showed during this game. The last time we got run on like that was against Georgia southern which was a triple option team
The problem was they consistently got that 3.5 yard per carry, thus a first down. In the 2 games, LSU & Colorado State, where teams had a slightly higher yards/carry, the average was inflated because of a few larger runs.
• Sir Chxrles Beats • we definitely should’ve won. I don’t blame the “Ridley stepped out play” for why we lost. It might have changed the outcome, but I point to our 2nd to last possession when we went 3 and out and Mullen had the worst play calls for that situation
• Sir Chxrles Beats • idk about that. Mike Leach has THE offense to beat Nick Saban. In most of the games Saban has lost, its the deep ball that is the back breaker. I don’t mean to give myself a shoutout, but if you’re not following my account on Twitter, you definitely should! It’s @FQMissState
Almighty Phil I really like Jalen. I think he is a first class kind of kid. I just think Tua is better at the QB position than Jalen. that is not a knock on Jalen as a person or being disrespectful. now I did see in this game times when Jalen kept his feet under him and threw the ball with accuracy. and if Jalen works on his feet work there is no reason he can't become better as a passer. and I have every idea Jalen will do what he has to, to become a better passer. if for no other reason than the Kid Tua can take his job. iron sharpens iron.

Shaq McFlyy by struggling against a two lost team and beating them in the final minute? Sure maybe pushed through adversity but you should have smacked the holy hell out of these fools for the #1
@@Kazaam818 Ranked teams are always tough to beat on the road, if they aren't overrated. Not only that, this is basically a rivalry game because of how close the two schools are and rivalry games are almost always tough to win on the road. Alabama doesn't have to "smack the holy hell" out of teams to justify their ranking. Especially since other highly ranked team struggle against unranked teams and no one says shit about them.
what I will never understand is they say leaping to block a kick is a danger to the player so it's illegal. ok I get that. so if that is the case. that it is about player safety. then why is it not also illegal to leap and try to hurdle a tackler by a runner? that looks to me far more dangerous than leaping to block a kick.
Leaping is not illegal for a running back because running backs usually run the ball. When you run the ball it’s ok to hurdle because it’s an open field carry but when it’s a reception or interception hurdling is not allowed because it’s not an open field run
the rule applies to defensive players that are leaping to try and block a FG or punt. New rule that they put in place this past offseason. I don't like it, but it's for player safety.
I am proud of Jaylen as a football player, but I told you guys Tua was better. I told you before this game. Other people said the same thing, but all the negative comments came. The eye don't lie!
I'm a bama fan, but keith holcombes pass interference penalty was in the end zone, so by rule the ball should be at the 2 yard line right??? Not sure why it was just 15 yards....
There has been cowbells in Starkville and bowl games since I can remember first watching bulldogs games. I'm almost 30 now. If I'm not mistaken NCAA allows us to have them as long as they are not rung while play is being ran. If you listen majority of the bells stop when Bama gets on the line of scrimmage and changes to screams....seems in regs to me. Until those bells begin to clang while play is in progress and disrupting the snap of the ball they won't consider taking anything......
The reason why dan can’t win the big ones. Up by 4 on their 9 yard line , Kick a fg , running into the kicker to make it 4th and 1 from the 4 , Dan takes 3 instead of sealing the game. Prime example of why dan could never win the big one
They shoulda put Tua in this game and against Auburn that year we woulda beat em both by 2-3TDs. Love jalen but I’m sorry he’s not #13! There’s only 1 Flyin Hawaiian 🌺!
if Bama beat auburn that year if tua was in no UCF would have been in the mix at all and there would be a clear champ to the whole of college football.
