re: Any chance Bama folds this year?

[quote]That's a tall task for any team replacing their starting QB, WR, and RB.[/quote] This is the type of thing that always grinds my gears. Having stars at offensive skill positions is literally the worst predictor of college football success possible. They're the easiest positions for fresh...
This has got to be a joke. Yeldon lost 4 fumbles in 2013. So did Tre Mason. Jeremy Hill is an outlier with 1 fumble lost, but other SEC running backs are comparable; Alex Collins for Arkansas and Mike Davis for South Carolina lost 3. We were spoiled with Trent and Mark, who never fumbled. I wis...
The TJ Yeldon lack of appreciation is borderline absurd. He rushed for 149 yards against A&M, 121 against Ole Miss, 133 against LSU, and 141 against Auburn. He broke 120 yards in 6 of 8 SEC games. His 6.0 ypc is better than Trent Richardson in 2011 (5.8) and comparable to Ingram in 09 (6.1)....
There are plenty of Alabama players from the mid-2000s who have had solid NFL careers for a long time, including Charlie Peprah, Roman Harper, Mark Anderson, and Wallace Gilberry. Because of this, I think we'd have a lot of depth on defense. My roster would look something like this: QB: McCar...
I'm a huge fan of Nuss. He's the best OC that I can ever remember us having, and I think the switch flipped for him after last year's A&M game. We lost that game because A) his bad playcalling that allowed A&M to get up 20-0 and B) his refusal to run the ball in the 2nd half. However, he's learne...
South Carolina's 35-7 win over Georgia was a lot more impressive than Texas A&M's 29-24 win over Alabama. As anyone who watched the SEC championship last year can attest, Alabama and Georgia were pretty equal. A&M played Florida a lot closer, but the SC game against Florida was such an aberration ...

1. Alabama 2011 2. LSU 2011 After this, I'm not really sure....
At first I didn't want to play A&M without Manziel, since we wouldn't be beating them at full strength. But now that I think about it a little more, A&M losing because of Manziel not playing just further underscores the superiority of the entire philosophy of our football program. Alabama would ne...

Head to head would be the first tiebreaker. I haven't thought through how it would work after that....

Getting rid of divisions?

Posted by hwqqll on 7/22/13 at 5:45 pm
I saw an idea the other day about adopting a pod-style schedule like the Big Sky has. In this schedule, there would be no divisions. Each team would have 2 permanent rivals and cycle through the rest of the conference in 4 years, playing every other team either 2 or 3 times. Would y'all like or d...
