re: What do you expect out of Alabama this year?

This is pure speculation, but I expect them to go with a shotgun, RPO based offense with Milroe akin to what the Eagles run with Hurts. The defense will improve under Steele. I'm not making a record prediction because their success or failure will largely hinge on how the offense performs.

With the size of the OL, I would expect more inside zone and split zone run concepts.
And the piggyback off of that is RPO.

You are probably right.

The kick in the nuts is facing strong defensive linemen and press man coverage (see a Missouri type defense. Maybe A&M?).
It could neutralize both to an extent and you better have a plan to alter your offense.
