šŸˆ GAME THREAD ā­ Alabama vs Mississippi State ⭐ ESPN & SECN - Noon ET.

Welp.... sure wish Mac would have gone in. Not sure what he hurt, but doesn’t look promising. He could have easily broke his left arm the way he went down on it, or several other things. That was just ugly. Really ugly.

Need some of you sunshine pumpers to chime in.
 
For everyone screaming why was he in the game, it's all about style points from here on out with us. We have to absolutely dominate. Yeah, the injury sucks, but we cannot play these last three games inside a bubble suit. It sucks, but we need points galore to frame our case. And chances are we had an uphill battle anyways, so I'm not getting into Saban for this. Tua didn't practice his ass off to sit out games. How much did we all talk last year about his lack of game time and full game experience?

I disagree with this. I don't think it was about style points here. Saban was ready to take him out but Tua lobbied to go back in for one more drive and it worked. This was about stats for Tua's Heisman hopes. I think he wanted a 300/3TD stat line. We could still have gotten style points with Mac if they kept the offense going and the defense in.
 
Explains why he was screaming in pain. And why he didn’t want to proceed once he got upright. He was hurting.
And I don’t buy Saban wanting to run the 2 minute drill. We handed off the first 2 plays! Then a roll out on 3rd. Is that the 2 minute?

We should still be able to get style points without him being in the game. This is a game we are dominating. There is no reason to think Jones could not have put more points on the board. No excuse for him being in the game with a 35-7 lead. Respectfully disagree. I think CNS made a bad decision.
