Two teams in the SEC have the chance to alter the trajectory of their seasons and insert themselves into the thick of the national championship chase Saturday. All they have to do is beat the teams that have bedeviled them like nobody else.
Mississippi State (15) has lost to Alabama more than any other team in its history – 74 times, with just 18 victories against the Crimson Tide. The current losing streak is four, dating back to when Nick Saban got his feet under him in his second season in Tuscaloosa. Since then, the Bulldogs have failed to score more than 10 points against Alabama, which puts them in line with most of the rest of America.

Mississippi State has been living on turnovers, with 21 takeaways and only four giveaways. That’s nice, but Alabama isn’t far behind at plus-14 in the turnover department. So it isn’t likely that the Bulldogs can count on ‘Bama beating itself. Hard to see State finding enough ways to score to beat the nation’s No. 1 team, or probably even keep it close. ( Lay the 24 points ?)

I've got no respect for Forde and it has nothing to do with football. Ever since he wrote that article bashing that mercilessly bashed Starkville in a very juvenile way, I've wished he would quit his job and find something different to do.

I merely have disagreements with Barrett Sallee. But Forde on the other hand is a genuine *******.

That said, his article doesn't seem unreasonable for a guy who took a brief look at some stats and then formed an opinion. In other words, he didn't look very deep. Most opinion pieces that pull out the decades-old-history card can be summarily dismissed. I doubt Mullen and the Dogs are feeling any negative momentum from Coach Shira.
