If Love or Fluker can play right tackle "well", and Chance Warmack can hold down right guard (I think they'll move Barrett to left guard) we might have another good year.
Too much raw talent in the DBs for them to go wrong.... except the safety position. fricking dumbass Robbie Green screwed that ALL up. Who knows if Woodson is ready yet? ... and I mean the mental part. I know he eats babies and kills people with his bare hands for a living, but if he doesn't know Saban's defense he won't play. Then what? we have Mark Barron... and..... ummm.... Mark Barron.

my thinking is the D is going to need some time to come together. IF the O and GMac can get off early and often it'll make for a good start.
I can't wait until the spring game to see how they all look

I'm not worried that much about the OL although the RT position is worrying me a little. Alabama lost three OL last year, players that were clearly better than the ones that's moving on from this year's team and we didn't miss a beat. I think a loss that is sort of going under the radar is Colin Peek. He was McElroy's security blanket last year making critical catches when we needed it the most.

Cade Foster. Leigh Tiffin nearly became automatic under 50 this year (except for Extra Points for whatever frakking reason) and he was our scoring for a couple of games. I hope Cade can bring the points as easily.

Yeah I hope Cade is accurate too.
It'll be fun watch him drill guys on kickoffs though.
"Who was driving the truck that hit me? the kicker?!?!?! are you shitting me?"

our offensive line. I have full confidence in Jordan Jefferson if his line can buy him some time.

While losing Mike Johnson and Drew Davis (more so Johnson than Davis) will hurt our offensive line, we don't have nearly as much work to do there as we did coming into last season after losing three starters (two All-Americans). The DBs worry me, there's plenty of talent but not a whole lot of experience. In fact, there's virtually none at CB. However, the most important player for Alabama next year will be Dont'a Hightower. He is going to be responsible for taking McClain's roll in the defense, as a dominant middle LB, but more importantly the signal caller of the defense. Apparently he learned a lot and was really able to learn all the ins and outs of the defense while being hurt most of the season, so hopefully some good came from his injury. If he's unable to go, the defense is going to have to find a new leader and somebody to be the coach on the field real quick. If he is ready to go as expected, the defense is going to rely on him for his play and his leadership.

I have complete confidence in Dont'a Hightower.

People talk all the time about the OL and Defensive losses for Alabama, but losing their punter and clutch FG kicker could be huge for them next year.

For MSU it has to be Relf and Russell at QB. They will split time and Relf will run the Wildcat and Option and Russell will be our thrower. We all know Relf can run the Question is how will Russell respond to SEC ball. He is a smart kid with a really good arm but playing in the SEC can make you look really bad really fast if your not careful.

This is going to sound strange, but - Stevan Ridley. The reason is he is a bruising runner like Charles Scott was.
If he can stay healthy and get good inside yardage in the running game, it will open up the offense for Jordan, Shepard, Ford, Toliver, and Randle.

Mark Barron - He has to become the QB of the secondary, and get the youngsters in line.

He'll have help from Hightower.

Any Ar-Kansas fan that would use THAT for an avatar, immediately loses all credibility.
You might as well be a meth addict in a trailer park.
Fail.

That does sound strange. I played against Stevan and he definitely wasnt a bruiser back then. LSU has done a great job with him. He's always been an amazing athlete add that with the strength and power that he's gained at LSU and he should be a top SEC back

I do too, but he's still the most important player on the team. If he were to fail to do his job, it would hurt us worse than any other player on the team not doing his job.
