The Alabama offense laps the Miss State defense by leaps in bounds in nearly every advanced category, be it success rates, explosive rates, you name it. It’s a mismatch, and no amount of analyzing can pull a surprising match-up for the Bulldogs out of the stats. They have a bad defense. Alabama has an elite offense.
Look, Alabama made lots of mistakes in the game against LSU. They should and will bounce back against Mississippi State. Alabama’s offense is still one of the best in the country. Tua Tagovailoa is a game time decision, but I think he will play.
