Anyone else concerned with Ole Sis and Mitthtippy Tate this year

dadleyblane5 · Jul 11, 2014

Hey I was just looking at the returning starters for both teams and was wondering could we possibly fall victim to either team in an upset? Because I gotta feeling Ole Sis will be out in the revenge factor after last year. and Miss St. is gonna be better than people think. What about y'all?

I am not real concerned about Ole Miss we have the week off before we play them and that should mean trouble for the rebs. State is a concern and always is to me. We play them after a huge game with LSU, we seem to always get there best, and you are correct this years team will.be pretty.good especially on defense.

The Rebs will not live up to expectations.

MSU concerns me because they have a senior QB, they've played us mostly tough the last few years, and they get us right after LSU. It's not so much MSU as it is all the surrounding circumstances. If we are unbeaten at the time, we'd better be on upset alert, esp if it's another McCarron to Yeldon screen type win.

naw. Not concerned.

No not really. It seems like every other year Ole Siss is supposed to have a team good enough to upset Alabama and they always fall flat on their face. Since 1990 they have TWO wins over Alabama and a guy named Eli Manning was their starting QB.

As for Miss State they are scrappy but they don't have enough talent or coaching to hang with Alabama. I think they can keep it close at best.

I'm always worried about Mississippi State because they always seem to play us hard. Ole Miss on the other hand is not a concern right now.

gamersfuel · Jul 12, 2014

I could see the miss state game being close. It was extremely close last year for almost 3 qtrs IIRC..our offensive line also played awful in that game.

They both play us hard especially State but I'm not really worried about them. Every game has a life of its own of course so we'll have to see what the situation is at the time. Mississippi State does look like a solid 8-4 team, though. They'll be good. The Rebs will underperform and place some scrutiny on CHF in my opinion.

Ole Miss will be a physical game. Very good line play.

B1GTide · Jul 12, 2014

It is the SEC. You should be at least a little bit concerned, especially on the road.

I am concerned about both games because this may be the year one of those teams has one of those miracle seasons. OM is going to be better than most people think especially if they can cut down on their TO's at QB. MSU is a trap game after LSU. We should win both of them though but that does not mean anything right now.

fralo4tide · Jul 12, 2014

Absolutely! Both Ole Miss and Cowbell college fans are "concerned" that they will continue in mediocrity, and get hammered by the Tide yet again.

The disparity in talent is so great that if we have to be concerned about those teams, it means Bama has serious motivational issues from within.

I'm not concerned.

jabcmb · Jul 12, 2014

I think we beat them both. Ole Miss will be happy to play Bama at home for a change, but Bama really disrupts their offense. It usually takes a hot athletic quarterback to beat Bama, and Prescott can fit the bill for MSU, if Bama plays poorly. If Bama plays with discipline we win both easily.

I went to Jackson Mississippi in the early 80's and Alabama fumbled and bumblrd away a 20 something game winning streak, It was a lousy trip home, especially thru the Newton County speed trap.

Both teams play hard against Bama so all it takes are a couple of breaks. I also feel Ole Miss has some potential on their team.

With that said, I still believe we roll over them both.

I will qualify your comment with "healthy and deep" talent. If MS had not had more injuries to key players last year than any other (SEC) team (including the Lizards), they would have won at least two more games IMO. If they stay healthy they will surprise more than one team they aren't supposed to beat. Depth is their Achilles, always has been. They are not loaded with four and five star talent, but at the college level on any given week that isn't required (maybe for the long haul). If they don't suffer key injuries they will be in the top 3 in the West.

We typically have had a flat performance against MSU coming off the LSU game, I see no reason to believe this year will be different. Ole Miss at Oxford could be a very close game. Their talent level has improved and we will see if we have learned how to defend the HUNH. I think we win both but not a walkover in either game.

JBama_in_PCOLA · Jul 12, 2014

Comcerned? Yes. It is football we are talking about. Ole Miss is playing us in Oxford this year. The talent level has gone up and regardless of what anyone did last year, we still have the target on out backs. They still want us. MSU have us problems last season, though I was scared we would lose, it spelled disaster for us for the rest of the season. That has given them confidence as a team that they can beat us. Luckily it is in Bryant Denny this year. It's just coming after LSU. I still think we win.
