re: Ryan Mallet

I haven't heard anyone saying how great Alabama is going to be. It appears that they will be ranked #1 in the poll starting the season but all I hear about when it comes to Alabama is how many players they have to replace on the defense. All the national coverage focuses on the questionable DB's and kicking game at Alabama. If you think about it on a national level even Mark Ingram hasn't been getting any national attention this off season and he is projected to be a contender for this years Heisman race. I hear it all the time from the LSU fans about their hate for Alabama. It is obvious to me living in Baton Rouge and teaching at LSU that LSU just wishes Saban never left. And I don't blame them. All I am saying is that the SEC has dominated the BCS recently and it is the SEC's time to get some more national coverage for all the schools in the SEC.
