Croom Unloads on Alabama

Mississippi State coach Sylvester Croom, whose team was defeated by Alabama, 17-0, on Saturday, took some shots at the Crimson Tide during a speaking engagement before the Huntsville Quarterback Club. Croom, a former All-American at Alabama, said the Crimson Tide doesn't play "with as much class as Alabama teams usually do." He also questioned whether the Crimson Tide can go undefeated, saying the Bulldogs have "played three or four teams that are better (than Alabama) from a talent standout."
