Alabama +1400 to win national championship seems like a steal

I was patient and waited until just the right time to bet 500 dollars on Alabama winning the CFP title this season.

Huge upgrade on the offensive coaching staff. Bama will be able to out scheme everybody.


Also don't expect much of a dropoff on defense. I think the secondary could actually be better. KoolAid was sort of overrated imo and Terrion Arnold didn't get good until the second half of his last season. Caleb Downs overran too many plays. I am looking forward to what the young players who are hungry have to offer.

So many questions:
-QB play
-New defensive system
-New offensive system
-OC left for the NFL
-Schedule is brutal
-Lost a lot of NFL pass rushers
-LT (Proctor back?)
-Turnover at WR

If the pieces align the offense could be really good, but Im not ready to talk championship run just yet.

More questions -

What will happen to HC when these rape allegations are investigated and Washington knew it was going on and still played the RB in the playoffs. Just ask Les Miles how that worked out for him.

much less worried about QB play than last year.

quote:

fair, but tons of talent.

quote:

100% not worried about this

quote:

-OC left for the NFL



oh no, anyway

quote:

true

quote:

-Lost a lot of NFL pass rushers


15 was a monster, but our defensive system caused him to not even rush the passer in the biggest of games.

We have dudes on the roster that will be able to affect the QB just fine.

quote:

-LT (Proctor back?)


LT could not possibly be worse than last season.

quote:

-Turnover at WR


the turnover at WR is a net positive as far as I can see.

Year 1 of any new coach means a bad loss

Year 2 proves to be quite different but without Saban, the dead cat bounce is more likely.

It’s hard enough to take GA at +350. 12 team playoff will be brutal.

I agree with you and am afraid that it will become like the MLB playoffs where rarely does the best team from the regular season win the World Series.

Flukey shite happens. Like the SECCG last year, which was basically like a play-in/playoff game and the best team from the regular season didn't win.

One team played in the Least division. The other in the West. The best team was decided on the field in the SECCG.
