Damn, you'd think Bama hadn't put their last 6 consecutive starting RBs into the league

Fournette puts them over the top. Kamara is much better than Guice, so overall it's very close.

Bama will shock the nation at RB this season.

We got two very similar to the Ingram and Trent combo.

Has literally nothing to do with the position rankings. That being said, I would have them fourth.

No but it would shock the SEC Rant. According to this site Bama backs suck and only benefit from a great offensive line. This year Saban is going to play without one offensive lineman each game to validate the Bama running backs.

True...Our starters will be a sophomore that had a shortened season due to injury (nice game against UT last year) and a true freshman.

Kody Walker could do a little

There are question marks with every RB except for Walker and he just broke his foot.

I'd have A&M at 8 above Vandy, but ESPN probably forgot that Keith Ford was on the team after being held out of the Spring game.

They get all bent out of shape about Bama fans claiming the best of whatever category happens to be brought up.

For running backs however, Bama does generally have one of the best stables year-in and year-out.

2015 - Henry wins heisman, maxwell, doak walker, unanimous all-american, first team all-sec, SEC OPOY
2014 - tj yeldon is second team all-SEC
2013 - yeldon is second team all-sec
2012 - lacy is second team all-sec
2011 - trent richardson wins doak walker, unanimous all-american, first team all-sec, SEC OPOY
2010 - mark ingram is second team all-sec
2009 - mark ingram wins heisman, unanimous all-american, first team all-sec, SEC OPOY
2008 - Glen Coffee fist team all-sec

So excuse me for scoffing at a 5th place preseason ranking of our RB position

Not kicking and punting.

We have one of the best place kickers and one of the best punters in the SEC.

Who do you have for 2016 though? No one is a known commodity at this time.

Exactly why I said we will shock the nation. Everyone thinks Bama's going to be quiet this season because we lost some big name guys. This is not 2010, this is another title contending team. It's only a matter of time before y'all know the names of this year's offense.
