    Bama just isn't that good this year. Their receivers aren't great. Their Oline isn't great. Their Defense is still really good. We played awful in that game, still had more yards than them.

    Bama could have easily lost to Texas and Texas A&M. Ole Miss is not that good either though.

    I think most games are decided by who has the most talent but Saturday's game in Oxford could depend on which coach has their team more motivated to win. You know Lane will have his guys motivated but Bama hasn't played a regular season game with 2 losses since their current players were in middle school. If Bama comes out uninspired Ole Miss may whip their ass. Especially since Ole Miss's biggest strength is to start out strong and build a lead.
    We'll see what Nicky can come up with.

    MSU seems to be the only team that is scared to death of Alabama.

    Bama is liable to run for 300 on that defense. Ole Miss will not do the same to them.
    Alabama is a pass 1st team. If they were a run heavy team they'd probably be undefeated.

    too many people underestimate pride ... Athletes are competitive by nature, and at some point even when you realize the playoffs are out of the question there is still a reason to play well and WIN ... and that's called pride and it comes naturally to most athletes .... this "mailing it in" mantra is something made up by non-athletes and is way overused ...... jmo
    OXFORD, Miss. (WTVA) - Ole Miss campus police ask students to behave at future baseball games following a recent incident.
    The university said students were reportedly throwing rocks at Georgia baseball players during last weekend's series.

    Some of the veteran players for Bama said they need to get some of the younger players to buy in and put in the effort necessary and play for the name on the back of their jersey, and the A on the front. Will Anderson and Bryon Young on the defensive side have not given up for sure. Whether Saban and the older players can get these younger players to buy in who knows. One of the Sports TV anchors, who also does post game commentary after every game, said Bama was not a disciplined team, and they have had offensive issues whether that be timing or whatever. Whether they can regroup and get everybody onboard and on the same page will be evident Saturday. I think they will be able too and OM will have their second loss, but everybody has their own opinions and that what's makes some things not boring.

    Not near the same .
    Bamas path to the playoffs is basically dead .. so they won?t be in backs against the wall mode. And controlling their own destiny
    We will see early in this game if they want to be there or not .. if they do the win by 14+

    Flip side OM isn?t very good, but Lane is very good and they have more to play for than Bama
