wait a week and you'll have hard evidence to answer your question

Well, keep telling yourself this and maybe it will become true. Talent is strictly a comparable term and LSU does not have a measurable talent edge on any team in the SEC west. Not State, not A&M, and certainly not Alabama, Arkansas, Ole Miss or Auburn.
You're retarded.

Without decent qb play, they are in trouble.

Saban is basically always a shoe in to win 10...so the answer is pretty much yes until proven otherwise(except his first year obviously).

They will be lucky to win 9 games. Next.

First of all....defense wins games period. Qbs only need to be functionable to win games in a lot of cases. Quick..are you able to tell me the name of the qb for Ohio State when they won NC in 2002? Thought so. The Univ of New Jawsey @ Coral Gables qb during the early 2000s? Its not hard to win games when you have Willis MacGahee in the backfield and all the talent they had....qb was Ken Dorsey btw and he had average armat best...Wuerffel of UF had weak arm but was a leader and had a trio of great wrs to help...along with HC who knew how to run defenses crazy.
LSU lost games last year (and damn lucky they didnt lose to UF) because offense was bad and both qbs didnt have the skillset to manage game at that time. Fournette came on as year progressed...but he may have been liability at times early on with blocking assignments etc etc...rbs have to do more than just run.

Is Auburn QB going to be any good, some players look All American at practice... then fold under real pressure. Auburn better hope he is, we all know what
their defense look like last year.

I just think it's funny that so many people think we're not going to have a good QB.

Good enough for 10 wins.
Alabama actually has a pretty good OL. It may never dominate like the 2012 line, but it will get the job done. Getting back to Atlanta will hinge on the QB and WRs limiting mistakes and making enough plays.

The first flaw in your argument is comparing us to LSU.
Yes, very unfair to LSU (or any other school) to be compared to the cesspool that is Bama.

Probably not for the whole season, but for the first month when we don't play a high powered offense sure. We have Ole Miss, but they'll be breaking in a new QB as well, and in Tuscaloosa.
Offense will need to have its feet underneath them by October though, for sure.

Alabama will have a more than adequate quarterback.

LSU wasn't very good last year. They played above their heads in several games. Saban has a way of taking whatever QB he has and winning with him.
Heck, he lost his starter in the SECCG in 2001 and used Mauck to run the QB draw and throw short passes and beat number 2 UT.
If we ran an offense that was pass happy then I'd be more worried. We're winning titles with QB's the NFL won't touch so that tells you all you need to know.

I can not wait to see Alabama go no huddle with these..
Saban said the signs resulted from meetings with coaches from Ohio State, TCU and others who use no-huddle offenses. The idea was to minimize communication
Nick Saban discusses no-huddle techniques after the fall camp scrimmage Saturday.
"We felt like last year we were kind of learning how to be a no-huddle team on the run because of the personnel we had," Saban said. "We thought it was best suited for Blake (Sims), and we've talked about that many times before, but we didn't go in with the idea that we were going to be a no-huddle team.
"So we visited a lot of people during the offseason to try and come up with the best system – Kansas, Washington, a lot of people that go no-huddle ? It's just a methodology of how some people get formations and plays in the game."

seriously saban is going to use those idiot signs too?
well i suddenly hope bama sucks rocks and he and lane get into a brawl on the sidelines and his toupee comes flying off.

Saban would curb stomp Kiffin. I'm a die hard Bama fan but that would be hilarious.
