re: Sell me on Bama winning the SEC based solely on their defensive front 7....

Yeah, LSU's secondary really shined against Arky, UNC, and AU. See, I can play that game too. And why wouldn't they improve? Doesn't that typically happen, especially with Saban defenses? LSU lost their all world DB as well. I'm not worried one bit about our DBs, and I was really impressed with their play in their first year starting last year.
