"They only have to replace four starters on offense, but three of those have been so huge to the program's success -- quarterback Greg McElroy, running back Mark Ingram and wide receiver Julio Jones."
quote:

"I know Ingram won the Heisman and Jones had the capability of scoring every time he touched the football, but I think the one they'll miss the most out of those three is McElroy. The kid was brilliant and just a flat-out winner. He might not have been the strongest, fastest or have the best arm, but he was such a tremendous leader."

quote:

"Trent Richardson and Eddie Lacy will be just as productive, or more, than Ingram. Also Marquis Maze will fill in nicely for Jones."

quote:

"If the offense struggles, the defense should be able to bail them out. They return nearly everyone, including linebacker Dont'a Hightower."

quote:

"Their secondary could be one of the nation's best units with the entire group back intact."
quote:

"Even with only 14 seniors, I still would not be surprised if them or LSU ends up playing for the national title."

quote:

"They have so much talent. Nick has done such a great job stockpiling talent there. It's amazing how many good players they have."

My best guess on being a Nutt quote.

Coaches are stupid:

Not one of those confused me or left me scratching my head. Clearly Miles didn't comment on Alabama.

Can I use your avatar as my Christmas card this year? I can't put my finger on it, but there is just something about it.

So it would have been unlucky if we beat you. That makes no fricking sense.

Apparently, this coach didn't watch the LSU-Alabama game. LSU beat Bama outright, leading 24-14 late in the 4th quarter before Bama scored a TD to cut the lead. Then, Jarrett Lee hit Rueben Randle on 3rd and 10 and it was ballgame.

Where is the luck there?

As for the Auburn game, Auburn punched Bama in the mouth over and over again starting late second quarter and Bama never recovered. Auburn's last score was early in the 4th quarter.

No luck there either.

That is just stupid.

If anything, you could say that Bama was lucky to beat Arkansas, considering their trailed late in the game. But, that would be stupid too since they won.
