Alabama will win SU
I'm not. pretty much said Ole Miss would win and took them on the ML earlier. I've been saying for the past 3 years that Saban and Smart have not adjusted to the spread. Mobile QB and offenses that can get to the corner and also throw the ball, can exploit Bama as theyve had a leaky secondary for the past 3+ years. Their defense is way to big and slow. The defense is built for LSU who runs typically between the tackles. It's why TAMU beat them a couple years ago with Manziel, and why Auburn and Miss have had success against them. As compared to MSU who runs between the tackles with their spread attack. Bama living on the hype of years past.
You tell me, do they look like the #3 team in the country? As I said in the preseason, why does Bama get a pass and a high ranking with all the talent they've lost and they come into the season with no proven QB on the roster. Did not make sense. Not bashing, it's gambling and we all need to objectively be able to look at these teams and not fall for the hype

not surprised because the entire tout and gambling world was on them.
also because Bama has seemed beatable of late
they competed, but the breaks did not go their way and Miss took advantage.
oh well, Bama will still make the final 4 even with 2 or 3 losses because...Bama!
so never fear Tide fans!

I am....especially the way it happened. If it was 24-17 or so I would understand, but Ole Miss took it to them.
Regarding the OP's comments...Ole Miss is not necessarily "up and coming". Their fantastic 2012 recruiting class has matured and they are what they are: a stout CFB/SEC team. There will be a drop off in a year or two as they haven't recruited to that level consistently and will fall back to the 8-10 win season range (still respectable)....but not a year-in/year-out power house.

Defense is not lacking...you obviously weren't watching the game. I called ole miss and made a ton on my bet so I'm not being a homer. We had 5 turnovers in our half, a crazy tipped ball drill that turned into a 70 yard TD, and another long TD on an option pass with O-linemen over 5 yards downfield( obviously not called) our defense was not the issue. And ole miss has one of the best passing offenses in the NCAA.
