If Alabama doesn't get their OL straightened out, it will be a 2 loss season.

Florida State's offense was abysmal. Our defense definitely played a part in that, but there are many teams in the SEC that will challenge us more.

How good FSU's defense is will be determined in a few more games, but I'm willing to bet LSUs is just as good if not better. Auburn's may be as good this season too. If we can't pass protect better, and open larger holes for the RBs, it's going to be a didsapointing year for Bama.

I wouldn't call the OL our biggest weakness on offense. Not by a long shot.

I don't see two regular season losses...but one regular season and a playoff loss is possible.

Dude, we just played one, if not the best defenses we will play all year.
At Bama we have a ton of insecure/the sky is falling fans.

Don't see bama getting past Auburn or LSU this year with that offense.

LSU's defense will be good, but the weakness will be right up the middle on the DL. No depth or real beef past our nose tackle Gilmore.

I think the lsu-bama game will be another classic. Our offense will have to get better to have a chance though.

Nobody should be making bold assertions after one game. It's just one freakin game. All teams have a lot to work on.

FSU will be the best defense Bama sees all season.

The 2012 Alabama offensive line of Cyrus Kouandijio (LT), Chance Warmack (LG), Barrett Jones (C), Anthony Steen (RG), and DJ Fluker (RT) was one of Bama's best ever. I distinctly remember everyone panicking after they gave up 6 sacks against Western Kentucky and the running game average about 3 yards/carry near the beginning of the season. Overreactions at the beginning of the college football season are a time honored tradition for fans.

best D Bama will face until LSU. FSU is a top 10 D. I'm not too concerned about it given that it was an opponent of that quality on the first game of the season with a new OC (3rd OC in 3 games). By the time the O is "needed", I'm confident they'll execute better than they did in week 1.

What are you talking about?

Florida States D will be top 3 in the country this year - maybe #1. Derwin James is flat out the best defensive player Bama will see all year. Florida State has been touting this defense as the best they have had since Jimbo has been there, and they have had some great ones, and that is not hyperbole anymore.

You really think there is a defense anywhere near them before Bama plays LSU and Auburn waaaaay down the road? Not even close. Bama will easily be 7-0 by LSU and if there are any signals crossed, it will be fixed, bank on it.

I am not worrried about the OL at all.

Now the kicking game . . .
