i remember before the season, people were saying that Bama would struggle with DB's and o and d line.
you loss a lot good guys there, it shows.

and next year you lose not a great QB but one who generally won't lose a game for you.. ask the Gators if a QB makes a difference.

We heard the same thing after Wilson graduated. McCarron doesn't have the leadership qualities of McElroy, at least not yet, but he'll end up being a better QB.

Statistically our pass D is better than our run D, and both are solid. They just are not dominant like last year.

The truth is everyone knew this defense would not dominate, but expected the offense to make up for it. However, the offense is worse than last year despite returning nearly everyone. Auburn's gameplan last year exposed us. Stack the box and force McElroy to play like a good QB and you have a great shot to win the game.

There's a difference between losing a quarterback and losing a Tim Tebow or a Colt McCoy or a Cam Newton. When a player like either one of those leaves for the NFL you essentially lose your entire offense.
