Quote:When your team recovers an onside kick your player batted ten yards down field then I'd say the ball bounced in Alabama's favor as well. Ole miss was simply the better team and deserves the credit. They went into Alabama in front of a hostile crowd on a Saturday night game and simply out played Alabama . This notion that ole miss was lucky and the ball bounced in their favor is ridiculous.

Ole miss also dropped 2 more Ints that hit them in the numbers which later led to Bama scoring another TD on at least one of them.

 

Both teams got some favorable bounces but everyone will remember the crazy deflection play. 

 

The lineman downfield had no effect on the play and is more of an excuse than a cause of the TD....don't give me the BS about the secondary keying on it as the CB broke when the OL was at the 2-3 yard (legal) distance and didn't even get a block on anyone that could have done anything about the play.  Similar to a RB busting a long run down the right side only to have a flag thrown at the LoS for a WR on the left side holding a CB....does it really affect the play?
