The Alabama Crimson Tide will look to strengthen their SEC West lead Saturday, while the Mississippi State Bulldogs will try to keep their conference title hopes alive when the teams meet in Starkville at 3:30 p.m. on CBS.
Alabama enters the contest having won its last seven matchups with Mississippi State. The Crimson Tide are coming off a crucial 30-16 win over rival LSU, which moved the team to No. 2 in the latest College Football Playoff rankings.
Senior quarterback Jacob Coker has emerged as a steady quarterback for the Crimson Tide, who will still rely on running back Derrick Henry to pace the offense.
