re: What's wrong with Alabama's defense so far in 2014?

We did OK against Ole Miss, but how many times have you seen this Bama defense give up 3rd and long in crucial situations the last two seasons? To much to be Champions and until this is fix. We got problems. This giving up 3rd downs all the time in crucible situations tells us how much of a drop off our defenseive play is compared to 2009-2011 Bama defenses. Is it correctable, sure, but to act like things are just fine isn't going to solve anything.

Hopefully some leaders emerge from the youth
(Especially players like OL C Robinson) These type of players will give us 3 years and will help bring Championship home.
