Love all the optimism in here, but you still have to get by Alabama

No QB yet, but a LOT of good candidates and remember we didn't have one at this time last year either. I think we can be just as good offensively and more diverse. The offense won't go through one guy like it did last season. OL should be as good or better with a solid C and LT, along with a lot of experienced players to fill openings. Plenty of skilled people back, some that have been waiting in the wings.

The real difference is up front on D. This has a chance to be as good a DL as we have had in a long time. We can go super big to combat the LSU's Arky's and UGA's of the world, or put in speed guys. Extremely deep and very talented. If this defense can find another ILB and a safety they could be the best in the country next year. And there are players that can fill those spots. You don't recruit at the level Bama does and not have players.

Warning rattle boys. You might do all those great and grand things you're talking about. But one thing has been a constant in recent years and it has not changed, the road to get where you want to go runs through TTown.
