re: Jordan Reid from CFL says Alabama is the most overrated team in the AP poll

This is stupid. They'll be no worse than top ten at the end of the year. So at worst -6 from where they started. That's not gonna be the worst finish. Won't be close and it's likely they'll do better than that.

As far as Saban's biggest challenge, I do agree on that. From what the fans are expecting (perfection or near to it) and what he's dealing with (Unsettled QB, change of coordinators, not much returning production, disappointing season) probably the widest gap since he came there.
