Now Accepting Applications: Alabama Head Football Coach

Mississippi State 17, Alabama 12

How sweet it is! It is always good to see the Bulldogs win, but it is even better when they beat a team that has such obnoxious fans. I did not hear a lot of that Roll Tide Roll garbage but I did get a kick out of how excited the Alabama fans became at scoring field goals. Field goals!

Those of us who have been MSU Bulldog fans for a long time, fans because we graduated from the school, understand that the team has been good, that the team has been bad, and that it will be both again. So we just enjoy the victories when we get them and enjoy the day when we don't. Contrast that to Alabama where they live and die by wins and losses. And by the way, did any Alabama fans actually graduate from the school? I've met many Alabama fans but precious few Alabama graduates.

Not long ago Alabama was firing a coach and forking over a sizable portion of the State's net worth for Saban. Who knows what they will do now? As for Mississippi State, we will enjoy the victory while we can, try to not be too obnoxious, and wait for the next game. Win or lose we will enjoy the game.

I was also disappointed, once again, in the SEC officials. Calling four time outs for Alabama in the first half? And near the end of the game, when MSU was trying to run down the clock, the ref seemed to forget that he was supposed blow the whistle when the ball was ready to play, not wait until Alabama was ready to play.
