Not that it would have made the first bit of difference but I know in Saturday's game we left at least 17 points on the table we should have had if not for a missed FG and a couple of drops. I admit we had zero shot in that game, but the final score should have looked a little better if you can call 51-20 a little better. It just looks like all of our coaches and players go into that game pissing in their pants scared to death every year. We're beat mentally as soon as we step off the bus.

Absolutely no excuse for LSU, but LSU only gave up 10 points this year.

That's exactly what I was saying in an earlier thread. Under Dan, the approach to Bama is simply "we expect to lose", and apparently that's fine with everybody. Against Bama, we play scared, and coach scared. If we are going to lose, let's go down fighting...trick plays, blitzing, onside kicks, fake punts, etc.

Well, OM did not get the memo. OM has no running game, but they have approached Bama with the attitude that they CAN win.

They have also approached that game with elite receivers. We have none

That's why as long as Saban is at Bama, I refuse to use them as a measuring stick for where our program is. Hell, I'll so far as to say that based on our history against Bama I'll never use them as a measuring stick. It's futile. In 97 games against them, we have averaged 9.7 ppg. They have outscored us 2268-994.
16-78-3 record against them. They have been in our heads since football was invented.

OM gets Bama early in the season while they're still working out the kinks, we get them near the end at their peak. Not a fair comparison. I'd be interested to see a plot of Bama's points allowed each week of each season under Saban... may do that later if I get a free minute.

Random is basically saying unless we are in the Top 5 every year we need to get rid of Mullen. I wonder if his high school season is over will he resign this year?

All he did was post a fact. A very sad fact. I hate that other people are fine with it. We can do better than what we saw Saturday and what we've seen all year.

Thank you for this. Apparently there are some that think Dan is the only one that can't do well against Bama. Plus...I do find it somewhat amusing that the OM wins are constantly thrown out there but in the next sentence....OM is going to get hammered for cheating.

Definitely Pee Pee Pants City and Saban is swinging Lucille.

Fred Ross is pretty good when he actually catches the ball.

It's a sad fact. Would it be better if we if we avg'd 9.9 ppg like lsu their last 7 games vs bama or 12.7 ppg like bama's avg since dan got here? I'd love to beat bama, but it's just not something that should be a barometer at miss state imo. Saban is 96-10 with 5 sec championships and 4 national titles since Mullen got here.

We can certainly do better than what we have seen in some of the games this year. That being said Alabama is in a different universe it is pretty dumb to freak out over a team that has shut down everybody they have played.

Bama is on an entirely different level but it looks like the first time we get hit in the mouth we quit against Bama. Dan seems to play not to lose more than he risks and against Bama that is an absolute losing strategy. I don't think there is a coach that could have won with our players on Saturday but not many could have done worse. That is coming from someone who wants Mullen back next year.

We scored 1/3rd of those points in 2014.
