This team will come out fired up more than ever for this matchup with Mississippi State. Mississippi State comes into this matchup at 5-2 on the season with both losses being by double digits on the road. This Mississippi State team has been a good home team but on the road, they have struggled. One thing we all know, it's not easy playing at Alabama.

Alabama and Bryce Young going to want to make a statement early in this one. Mississippi State offense isn't going to be able to move the ball at all on this Alabama defense. Nick Saban is really going to have this team fired up for this matchup. Bryce Young and Jahmyr Gibbs have been huge for Bama's offense this season and I really see them exploiting this Mississippi State defense. Mississippi State hasn't been very good on the road this year. They just got beat by a below-average Kentucky team and LSU. Alabama is on a different level and they're coming off a loss is the best time to bet on this team. They always come out and play at a different level after a loss and I expect the same in this game.
