Frick bama
We just supporting our investment.
Ess E See!!!
Screw Alabama and the horse they rode in on.
Never cared much for the S E C chant. Didn't care for us doing it up in VA during baseball finals.
Trust me if we were in the CFP and Alabama was in the St. Petersburg bowl there wouldn't be one Bama fan call in to Finebaum about how they weee pulling for State. It's all about them. They are chanting SEC because they don't have anything better to say.
I'll bet Saban can't name all the teams in the SEC. That's how much of a shit we should give about Bama.
I've never joined in the SEC chant. It always embarrasses me.
Go Bucks or Tigers. I can't stand bama.
I feel the only thing we truly get from the SEC is a big check.
Touche. He has helped pad all pockets of SEC schools for years now. Can't deny that.
I think the best thing I like about him is that he truly is never satisfied. Even at the end, while cheap shots were taken on Foster - he was pissed about how his guys responded. Even looked like he sent a few to the locker room early to spare them from hurting the team.
I also like it when the SEC does well during bowl season because it indirectly helps MSU by holding up the "toughest conference in the nation" mentality displayed by talking heads on ESPN. An SEC loss doesn't hurt us as much when the SEC runs roughshod over every other team out there during the season and bowl season.
Plus quite frankly I can't help but admire Bama a little bit for their history of great teams. I mean, I want to kick their asses when we play but that's the thing - beating Bama means you've accomplished something. Hell, TSUN's been bragging about it for 3 years now.
I also get a little laugh when I watch them (or any other SEC team) demolish their competition because I'm basically like "We have to play these assholes every year. Y'all have fun now!"
You can chant SEC with the bama fans all you want while they continue to thrash our ass but I will not be; not that it matters who I root for.
I hate Bama I hate LSU I hate Arkansas I hate auburn and I despise Ole Miss. I don't chant SEC just because I'm a State fan not a conference fan
this thread reminds me of the UN/USA argument....
Just a couple of points....
1) Saban is a huge advocate for our league. Always has been.
2) I completely understand the BAMA hate because the top dog always gets the most. It is this way in every league. However, the SEC winning bowl games only makes our league more appealing and helps everyone as a whole. The SEC's recent dominance has helped everyone in our conference.
3) Tusk, I expected more from you than pulling for da barn in bowl games. Awbren is Ole Miss perfected. They practically invented cheating and would burn Tuscaloosa down and piss on the ashes if they could.
4) Dabo has already proven he can coach without Watson. His first three years were rocky but beginning in 2011 (his 3rd full season, started mid season in 2008) he began to put his stamp on the program.
2011 10-4 Orange Bowl
2012 11-2 Chicken Bowl
2013 11-2 Orange Bowl
2014 10-3 Citrus Bowl (Watson started 5 games)
2015 14-1 Runner-up
2016 To be determined
5) Dabo has already recruited another stud QB to replace Watson
6) Dabo, imo, is the next Bobby Bowden. Either BAMA is going to foul up hiring him like they did with Bobby or continue rolling with Dabo. My concern is that Dabo doesn't fit the classic BAMA persona of Bear, Stallings, or Saban. We would be morons to pass on Dabo.
