re: There's only one team that can stop an UGA threepeat

While I think on paper Bama has the talent to be at the top, the one thing that I can't get over is that they appeared to need the draft guys to play in the bowl game. Even with a top class coming in this year, that throws up plenty of red flags for me. Speaking of red flags, the other big one is no team that has recruited like Bama has in the past 5 years should be as dependent on the transfer portal as they are. It just speaks of either bad buy -in from the players or poor development on the staff.

I know they will certainly be motivated to improve, but the feel of invincibility is gone. With top athletes that have always been good enough, they rarely doubt their own ability...until they get punched in the mouth and suddenly their best wasn't good enough. Some work back from that mentally; others don't.
