I agree.  Bama and UGA made statements today.  OM and Arkansas are still good teams, they just ran into teams with something to prove.  
 

I wouldn’t even question Kiffin’s 4th down attempts.  He knew he needed to score TDs.  
 

I’ll say this about OM’s defense though, and Arkansas, they both were still physical just overmatched. You like to see that after giving up big leads.  

I get that you need touchdowns but you don’t have to go for broke in the first quarter. It’s 35-7 now but could be 24-10 and you’re still kinda in the game, but those 4th down calls just killed any chances.

Of course 3 of those 5 attempts (so far) were on one drive.  

The first one I didn’t mind, they were in no man’s land. Every other attempt I think kicking or punting was the right move.

 

It’s a moot point in this game but it’s a complaint with Kiffin that’s not new. It almost cost him the Egg Bowl last year. OM probably should’ve won that game by 2-3 TD’s but because of failed fourth down attempts instead of short field goals, State had the ball with a chance to tie at the end of the game.

Ole Miss won the second half 21-14!!!**

 

Kidding aside, I liked how the team didn't quit after getting down so bad. 

 

There's little doubt Bama/UGA will meet in the SEC championship game. They may well meet again in the NC game. 

They got swarmed in the 2nd quarter and couldn’t get over it. Had chances to get off the field and didn’t make the plays.

One thing I was glad to see was the defense didn’t give up the over the top big play. 

I agree, BUT to be fair... why even try when Robinson was running it at will? 

 

Bryce Young will get all the Heisman love after today, Robinson was much more impressive today than anyone else on the field.

Most of the Bama fans I know are concerned about the lack of big plays. I don’t think they will be able to drive the length of the field consistently against a defense like a Georgia.

I will say it is a great win because this team needed something good to happen after the last two games. 
 

NO TURNOVERS tonight. Now we still left some points on the field (two missed FG’s) but the defense was outstanding again. I can not overstate enough that we took care of the ball on offense. For the most part the OL was very good (had one bad series of plays in the fourth quarter). 
Ball control was big as well. TOP was 36-24 and we almost doubled them in FD’s. 
Rogers did a great job of taking what the defense gave him. 
 

Proud of this team for taking a step forward. A&M is certainly no where as good as they were last year but they are still very talented across the board.

Huge win for State. Most would have taken 3-2 at this point, but they sure got there in a weird way. LOL. This was massive in terms of being able to get to six wins. There are a lot of Will Rogers haters that have some crow to eat tonight. He’s by no means perfect but I thought he was excellent in this game.

 

A&M…. Yeesh. Jimbo is making an awful lot of money to produce Kevin Sumlin level results. That is a 6 or 7 win team at best, IMO.
