What is the All-Time 25 man Nick Saban roster at Alabama. No bench players, no back ups, just the 25 starters? Make your lists, I'd love to see them. Here's mine....

QB- AJ McCarron
RB- Mark Ingram
WR1- Julio Jones
WR2- Amari Cooper
WR3- Marquis Maze
TE- Colin Peek
LT- Andre Smith
LG- Mike Johnson
C- Barrett Jones
RG- Chance Warmack
RT- DJ Fluker

DE1- Marcell Dareus
DE2- A'Shawn Robinson
DT- Mt. Cody
ILB1- Rolando McClain
ILB2- CJ Mosley
OLB1- Courtney Upshaw
OLB2- Xzavier Dickson
CB1- DeMarcus Milliner
CB2- Dre Kirkpatrick
SS- Mark Barron
FS- Ha Ha Clinton-Dix

KR/PR- Javier Arenas
P- JK Scott
FGK- Leigh Tiffin

You know we have been freakin' stacked when Donta Hightower, Eddie Lacy, Trent Richardson, Landon Collins, Robert Lester, etc. get left off lol

I would take Norwood over Maze. He always seemed to show up in the clutch time and make the big catches for us.

I really liked how great he was at picking up 3 and mediums(what are these called) with his legs. His deep ball was on another planet compared to AJ's as well. If the defense was better nobody would be arguing who the better college QB was. IMO of course.

Both were great. Different playing styles so it's tough to compare them. If you told me I needed to win one game tomorrow with any Saban team, I'm going with AJ. Although I liked Sims more as a player and person.

He also had really good pocket awareness and avoided a bunch of sacks last season. Gave up like 13 sacks last season with Sims under center. AJ would've been sacked like 22+ times last year behind that line.

Lacy over Ingram. Lacy was hurt most of his last two years.

Norwood over Maze

Michael Williams over Peek

Hightower over Dickson.

Ingram is our only heisman. Got to have him in the list.

My fault for not stating this in the rules. Not changing the players positions. for example, if you like cyrus K and andre smith, you can't move cyrus to RT just to make room. Hightower was a MLB, so you cant move him to the outside

Josh Chapman deserves some love. Played the whole 2011 season with a torn ACL

sims was more dynamic, aj was much better at running an offense. alot of our lack of execution in difficult spots last year (which cost us 2 games) was that sims required constant input from the sidelines. aj could pretty much call the offense. this is largely a product of him starting for 3 years, but he was better at running an offense in his first year than sims was, while running a more complicated offense with more calls and checks. aj was also more accurate on short to medium passes that make up 80% of the passing game. sims was unquestionably better on the long ball

disagree. norwood was a perfect team mate besides being a great (an drastically underrated) receiver. he is one of my favorite bama players of all time. the guy was just clutch. dj hall was a bit of a dbag, would much rather have norwood on a team than hall
