I agree Grateful. Bama and LSU both have top 5 talent and head coaches that have proven they know how to coach it up. They (the polls) have to have a #1 and #2 team to start with even though history suggests they rarely get it right. I think it's easy to see why Bama is getting the love preseason right now. Arkansas is getting plenty as well and most have LSU in their top five. MSU is the only team I'm not sold on right now and that isn't a slight cuz I know they will be solid.

What's sad is even with Julio, Ingram, and GMac, Alabama still underachieved on offense.

As long as Saban is coaching the team they will be in the top 10 every year. And why should they not be?

Julio is probably the only guy that can't be replaced.


We're hoping that between DeAndrew White and Duron Carter, he might almost be "replaced".

I don't even remember the last "great" passing QB we had. It's been so long. Alabama just never attracts the great QBs for some reason.

Does this include kick return yardage?

Your site is wrong, champ.

Since you are missing Derrick Locke.

887 yds rushing
318 yds receiving
395 yds kick return

160.8 yds/game
1608 total yds

It's the SEC's official website. Take it up with them.

It's based on a minimum of 10 games. Derrick Locke played in 9 games. If you have actually taken the time to take a gander of the link provided, you might know that.

You're still wrong and it still puts TR at 3rd, unless you meant to say TR was 1st in all-purpose yds for players who only played in 11 games.

P.S. Locke played in 10, just didn't have any stats against MSU.
