Twenty players on MSU's roster call Alabama home.

"It just seems like when we play those guys, if we win, we have a good year," MSU cornerback Taveze Calhoun said. "If we lose, we have a not-so-good year. That game right there is a big game because it's usually the first tough game we have. I think that's what makes the game so big.

"I don't know. There's just something about that game."

Pretty much sums up what I said in another thread. When your school gets 24 hours to take over the SEC Network and you have the chance to showcase some of your greatest sports highlights...and you choose a win over an 8-5 Auburn team in the middle of the regular season....and it's a sloppy ass game with about 26 turnovers and really not that close....

Yep. You are Mississippi State.

Are you mad that we didn't show the 3-2 game?

That giant RB ran a mudhole through Whitey's D.
If that weren't enough he saw fit to go single safety...thus the beginning of the legend of Dak Prescott. We were reeling from the gitgo, never found our rythym on offense though I recall numerous errors as you say. State has lost some hosses but they will play us as hard as anyone.
