Live updates as Tide rebound from Tennessee loss
Alabama football and Nick Saban are aiming to bounce back from a loss at Tennessee and score a victory over Mississippi State.
The Crimson Tide have not lost to the Bulldogs since Saban’s first season in 2007. After having one winning streak snapped last Saturday, No. 6 Alabama (6-1, 3-1 SEC) will look to prevent the same from happening when No. 24 Mississippi State (5-2, 2-2) travels to Bryant-Denny Stadium for a homecoming game.
The Bulldogs have faced the Crimson Tide on five occasions after one of Saban’s rare regular-season losses. The 2007 game is the only one of those matchups the Bulldogs won.
