re: Come the Wisconsin game, who starts at Safety?

Just looking in from the outside, I'd say the natural picks are Geno Smith at free safety and Hootie Jones at strong, with Washington in dime.

The corners to me look like Tony Brown and Eddie Jackson, unless Jackson has a confidence lapse... then Bobby Humphrey's kid might start some.

In any case I'd look for you guys to be much improved on the back half. Saban made a solid hire with Mel Tucker , and you certainly arent without talent.
