Week 5: Alabama @ Mississippi State

[Tiderollin32]

This team is starting to gel and getting better. Something happened mentally in that second half and we started playing with more confidence and intensity.

We probably left 10-14 points off the board last week but something tells me we are going to use this momentum to propel us moving forward. Roll Tide and beat the cowbells!

Is that CST or EST?

CST.

8:00pm kickoff..

Was hoping that was an error. I like the night games, but I'm not crazy about the late versions. Also asks a lot of the players to get ready--but not too ready too early--for those super late games.

Night game in Starkville....cowbells....only thing to make that be over the top is if we get Beth Mowens.

maybe the two frequencies will cancel each other out

CST.

Ugh. That's rough on us in EST zone!

Its ESPN at 8pm CST. We'll kick after the LSU at Ole Miss is over, that one starts at 5.

We could potentially get Tom Hart, Jordan Rodgers and Cubelic.

Yeah, not a fan of the time. 9pm ET here in Georgia. I'll probably be stressed and have trouble falling asleep. I can't recall the last time Bama had a game at 9pm. I know there has been many 8pm games, but with the way games are/commercials, etc. I can see this game really starting around 9;15 or so.

I'm usually getting ready for bed at 9pm during the week...usually around 10pm on a weekend.

This would make sense with Cole living in B’ham and Hart in Atlanta. Not sure where Rodgers resides.

Of course, not that ESPN does things that makes sense- ergo an SEC game starting at 9:00 EST.

Could be worse. We could get that fount of omniscience RG III again.

 

[Windsortide]

Defense and a running game!

[TexasBama]

Stop the run
Run the ball
Be positive in turnover margin
Win the kicking game

First road start for Milroe so it'll be interesting to see how he handles it. He came in with the lead at Arkansas last year but this time it's 0-0. It's good he's getting a taste of it this week before the tougher game next week.

 

[CoolBreeze]

We have a lot to work on and Mittittippi Tate is just what the doctor ordered. I kind of like where we are right now flying under the radar but we need steady improvement to get where we want to be.

I enjoy listening to Jordan Rodgers fairly well. Very knowledgeable.

This is a good 1st road start for JM. The cowbells will force him to have to deal with noise, but the pressure of starting against MSU isn't anything like what it will be the next week against TAMU.

He really needs to play a clean game and avoid any backbreaking INTs.
