This is why they talk that way. This is why they look for reason they win or why we are winning. This is why they can't believe we might be better. This is why 90% of them think they have already won the game. . This is why they think we are over rated and a bubble that is going to bust. This is why they think, "They Are Miss State and there is no way they can beat us".
As great as I think the South is and would not live anywhere else, we are hard headed. We have a hard time accepting change. It took what 75 years before the SEC hired a Black Head Coach in football. It was what in the early 1970's before we had black football players. We are just hard headed people who can?t accept change and Alabama people are even more hard headed when it comes to football.
They can't accept the fact that MSU with their 3 star recruits could better than them. Maybe our Yankee coach is better than their Yankee coach. Saban has been a head coach for how many year, 20? Maybe it has just taken Mullen a few years to learn how to be a good head coach. Maybe Saban is at the end of his career and starting to stumble. Maybe Mullen is young and hungry. I don't know but every football dynasty comes to a end sooner or later and another one begins. Maybe this it is it. Who knows but I don't think you will find any Bama fan who think change like that could happen. Holts was great at one time. Bowden was great at one time. Steve Superior was great at one time. Change is going to happen.
They need to remember one thing no other school has played Bama more than MSU, not Tenn, not Auburn, not LSU but Miss State. We have been the only school who has manned up and has been willing to play them forever. If it was pre-split SEC conference, no one other than Miss State and Tenn would be willing to play them. All other would be trying to dodge them like they did since the beginning of the SEC. Maybe they should show a little respect for that.
We have only beaten them 18 times. That's ok because Ole Miss has beaten them 10 times and LSU has only beaten them 25 times. Tenn has only beaten them 38 times. KY only 2 times. Auburn has beaten them 35 times. Mighty Vanderbilt has beaten them 19 times. Georgia 25 times Florida 14 times. Arkansas 8 times. South Carolina 4 times. So it?s not like everyone else is whipping them.
So maybe Bama should get off the we are better than Miss State high horse. This might be the year that Miss State wins it all. It was going to happen sooner or later with a lower tier SEC school winning it all and it might just be Miss State this year.
We can hang it up on getting any respect from them. Hell most of them haven?t even been to a Bama football game. I would be willing to bet I have watched more games in Tuscaloosa then majority of them.
Bottom line is this. For this week they can all just kiss my ass.
sorry Tusk I like you and we got a few thing in common in real life but this week it full Bama hate.
