Yeah I'm still trying to get a grasp on looking at an Alabama team with if we're honest a rather poor defense. As of right now it looks to be the worst of the Saban era sans 2007.

I honestly thought with Minkah, Averett, Harrison, and Hootie coming back, we'd have a better secondary. Maybe it goes hand-in-hand with the fact that the d-line hasn't been generating as much rush, but it's frustrating to me when teams are in 3rd-and-long, and there's a receiver wide arse open. If anything, I'd like to know what the damn route is so maybe our receivers can run it.

For those defending our defense the last couple of weeks...when's the last time a Saban defense was ranked 37th in the nation? That's throwing it back to the Mike Shula era bad. They need to get better and get better fast or this is a 9-3 type season.
