how bout you enlighten us as to what to expect from the '15 tide "O"?



No idea, as QB is an unknown.

How is your defense gonna line up. Got a coach?

LOL wut? Maybe 75% of the posts are corn dogs obsessing over Bama and obsessing that A&M is obsessing over LSU.

That doesn't address my point (since you cut out half the post) but its pretty obvious why LSU is the focus here. We haven't won a championship since 2007 and yet we are the focus of 75% of the posts on the SEC Rant. This never occurred to your tiny Bama brain?
Really? What is this thread's topic?...Which team has had the most threads started about them this week?...getting a clue yet?....I didn't think so.

that's why it took Tom Ritter to cheat a win for bama at the end of regulation with the non offsetting personal foul right?

You're never going to get anywhere trying to explain to Bama fans that if you have the most talent and lose, its because coaching. Or that being preseason #2 and finishing 3rd or 4th is underachieving.

Tiger "D" will be just fine because it will be solid up the middle. ALL DTs return plus starting MLB. Once Beckwith became the starter at MLB (Fla game) the tiger defense was a different animal. If Hunter returns at DE LSU will have one of the better starting Dlines in conference.

Even if Collins and Mills leave early LSU will still have one of the top two/three secondaries in the SEC. J Adams will be an All American safety. Expect R Robinson to return to the team and reclaim his starting corner spot.

Still working on that coach thing.

If you think Dak is better than 12 gauge, you should stop watching football and take up knitting.

If you think a two game sample size is comparable to what Dak has done this season, then you should stop watching football.

Yes, 12 gauge had a better game against the one common opponent, but it was also with more talent around him and on a neutral field. Say what you want, but BDS rattled Dak big time in the first half.

Blake Sims had 796 more yards of offense and 7 more TDs than AJ had last year, 900 yds and 4 more TDs than AJ in 2012, and 1225 yds and 17 more TDs than AJ in 2011, but continue the narrative that you "overachieved in spite of the fact that you had an inexperienced first year QB"

He proved on the field that he was better than Dak. I do not see how you can dispute that.

Played two games. Got Bama on a neutral field. Surrounded by more talent. STFU.

Because the team did better than expected.

Not that complicated of a concept really.

I'll just post this book I posted earlier below explaining many of Bama's issues.


My book is a helluva lot shorter and much simpler. Leon Brown, Andrew Shepherd, Trey Depriest, Eddie Jackson, etc., etc., vs. Chance Warmack, DJ Fluker, CJ Mosley, Dont'a Hightower, Courtney Upshaw, Dee Milliner, etc., etc. Sure, we had talent. Just not as much as a national championship team. Those guys I mentioned would never have seen the field on any of the NC teams. And they're not the only ones.

You really are a clueless frick, aren't you? I'm guessing you didn't bother top take a look at where OSU's classes were ranked, but that's typical. Here, let me do your homework for you: 3rd, 2nd, and 4th.

You're probably too young to remember Tyler Love. #1 recruiting classes? And you guys are always bitching about how a recruit gets bumped a star when he commits to Bama. The reality is that there's not a dime's worth of difference between the top five classes in any given year.

And you're also clueless if you think any of those guys I mentioned would have ever seen the field in 20098, 2011, or 2012.

Preseason ranking of 2 and favorites to win it all at seasons end, but yet they say bama overachieved...yup, makes sense.

Very few of Bama's fans that I know thought that.
The hype from the media is part of what concerned me.
