Mississippi State has been playing Alabama in football for a long time and as the Crimson Tide’s 79-18-3 lead in the all time series shows, its been a fairly one sided series in favor of Alabama. But that doesn’t mean the Bulldogs haven’t had their moments.
One such moment occurred in 2007. Alabama, under first year Head Coach Nick Saban, entered the game with a 6-3 record, while the Bulldogs of Sylvester Croom were 5-4 and seeking to become bowl eligible for the first time in seven years.
In the first half, State’s offense had a difficult time getting much in the way of offense, managing just a field goal.
