When State plays Alabama, they don't just have to beat the Tide, they have to beat the refs too. Year after year, bad calls go against MSU. I'm sure you could reel off more than a handfull from your memory bank. It's unreal.
Just take this year's baseball game in Tuscaloosa when John Cohen was thrown out after the game for arguing a play that cost State the game. Here's a video of a blantant missed call in 2009....Chad Bumphis' kickoff return for a touchdown called back.

Oh, and this also acts as a compliment to #HailState88 as it was an 88 yard touchdown - or shoulda been.
