re: What will make Bama great this season?

We will have the best O-Line in the nation.

We will have one of the best RB corps in the nation.

We have our best WR group since Saban has been in T-Town.

Our QB lead the toughest defensive conference in completion % last season.

We have the best Coach in College Football.

We have the best DC in CFB.

Our ST problems will be fixed, Shelley has proven himself, Griffith will kick long FGs and maybe punt, and Cade will just kickoff. Mandell must be on roids because he added like 12 yards to his punting ability since January 9th and A-Day.

We return six starters/guys that shared the starting position out of 13 on one of the greatest defenses of all time.

Vinnie Sunseri and Quinton Dial, new starters, are proven talents.

This team is hungry, and has A LOT of guys left off of the 2009 and 2010 teams who can help lead any younger talent (which really won't be a problem, it's just something everyone is claiming to try and discount Alabama.) through tough times.

One of our new CBs (Deion Belue) has already learned more of Saban's scheme than Menzie and Milliner learned before the season in 2010.

This isn't as big of a deal, but both of our starting CBs run a 40 faster than 4.4. (Belue 4.3, Milliner 4.35.)

We're Alabama.
