Mississippi State to test No. 1 Alabama defense's discipline with complex offense, mobile quarterback

Athletic quarterback Dak Prescott is questionable for tonight's game in Starkville because of an elbow injury. Read more...

"I think the quarterback that he has now is a lot like Tebow in terms of his skills set," Saban said on his Thursday radio show. "He's a big guy, he's very physical, he's a very good runner. He's a good strong-armed passer. They have another quarterback that is a really good passer as well. You almost have to prepare for two quarterbacks."

Should I be worried?

I heard yesterday Miss State has beat the No. 1 team in the county one time in their history. The team they beat was two time defending National Champion Alabama. That was in 1980. They beat us 6-3 in Jackson, MS. We played terrible that day. Kinda spooky about the two time champion similarity.

This is Mississippi State's BCSNCG and you can bet they are on cloud nine over there. I also remember Gene Stallings running Bob Bockrath out of the locker room after a loss over there. It's always a very physical game when these two play so Bama had better be ready.

I've been whistling past the graveyard on that.

Yep, I remember.  We fumbled at the goalline.  Give credit to MSU, they played hard that day, and Alabama didn't.

Indeed, we'd won the NC in 1978 and 1979, trying for a 3-peat!  BUT, that's where the similarities end!

In 1992 they gave us a real scare on our way to our undefeated season. If I recall correctly we were down 21-3 become we made our come back.

MSU is not the best team on our schedule but they are one of the most physical. I have seen them on TV several times this year and they play good defense but struggle to score. I think they are better with Prescott as QB. He is a big guy who likes to run. He was hurt last week so I don't know how healthy he is.

I don't know, Miss State might score 6 points today.

And we have scored 3 several times this year!
