Tomorrow night in Tuscaloosa we will have on one end of the court a Mississippi State team that stands at 1/6 in the conference with the one win at home 64-54 against arch rival Mississippi. They are 0/3 on the road in conference. Believe it or not they have not shot even 40% from the field in any one of the seven games. 39.6% is the highest they've gotten and they've been consistently awful, shooting a combined 36.7% over all 7 games. Not only that they are the worst FT shooting team in league games at 53.7%. In those 7 games they've managed but 67, 50, 53, 64, 59, 59 and 53 points.
In game 1 of the SEC season Alabama started 3 freshman in the opener at Mississippi State. They committed 19 turnovers, giving Mississippi State a substantial number of "free" points and they still only reached 67, shooting just over 36% from the field.
On the other hand Bama is undefeated in SEC play and undefeated on the season both at home and in true away games. They lost two games in neutral court appearances in the pre-conference season. At home in the conference they've crushed Mississippi 84-62, walloped Kentucky 78-52 and ran LSU out of the gym by 40, 106-66. They've also improved significantly on the defensive end and are the #1 team in conference games in defensive efficiency, ahead of national overall leader Tennessee. Their offensive efficiency in conference games is also #1. Turnovers are way down the last few games. 78 points is the least Bama has scored in the 7 SEC conference wins. Bama is also 7/0 against the spread in SEC games, covering the spread by 3, 15, 25 1/2, 13 1/2, 21 1/2, 11 and 9. That's not the victory margin, that's the margin over the spread.
I don't know how anyone can expect Mississippi State to tally even 60 points in Tuscaloosa and I would certainly expect Bama to at least get to their lowest offensive total of any SEC game thus far, 78. Ken Pom has this game at Bama -14, ESPN Power Ratings have Bama -15 and Sagarin has Bama -15.74. I took Bama -11 1/2 when it opened. The last I saw the line was -12. This is one of the strangest lines of the year and I've not seen a line that different from all three of those sources. So far Bama has come out aggressively in every game, including one two days after one of their now ex-teammates was arrested for capital murder, a huge shock to everyone on the team. They have been relentless regardless of the circumstances or what team they were facing. I don't know how anyone should expect a terrible shooting team, who lost at home 78-67 to Bama is going to Tuscaloosa and the game turns out essentially the same as the first game at Mississippi State. Mississippi State has spiraled downward while Bama has continued to improve as their freshmen have matured.
