Will be lucky to beat the Mocs.
OL sucks, QB sucks, RBs and WR overrated, DL sucks, LB sucks, DB sucks, and no kicking game.
Butch is unproven. We didn't have Brian Kelly before Butch so he is screwed. We pay recruits, obviously, and can't coach em up when they get on campus.
We barely get 90K for home games anymore.

1-11 is what I see. I just hope Chattanooga doesn't have experience returning on their LOS, because we damn well know our new starters on the line can't do sh!te.



WTF? UT LB's should be above average, imo

The main thing is for UT to improve as the year goes on. I think they will, and Bama has to play them their 8th game. That stretch at OU, at UGA and UF at Home, it would be big if they could win one of those.

I agree with you there. I've heard it said that you want to catch this team early in the year (believe there was at least one SEC coach who said that in one of those anonymous/coaches give their opinions of other teams type articles). If they can knock off one of those teams early then they'll go into the final stretch confident despite the brutal schedule. That's the kind of win that can carry them through a period of losses and let them close well.

I don't know if they'll get one though I do have a feeling that just like last year we'll upset at least one team that no one gives a chance against. There's just so much unknown about this team - tons of potential, tons of scary looking known issues (like our depth situation on the lines and DT issues), and tons of unknowns that could go either way.

This is one of those teams that's been more difficult to evaluate in terms of guessing how they might perform.

I don't know, but I'm just shocked an Alabama fan used "AN historic"


I've never understood this. The H isn't silent. Why "an"?

The correct indefinite article is "a" not "an".

An is used for words with vowel sounds at the beginning. This is America. We pronounce the "h". We don't swallow our "h" like some cockney gutter rat limey. (No offense to folks of british persuasion )

Hopefully we can tighten it up before that happens.
