That doesn't bode well for Bama's offense this year. I had been giving McCarron the benefit of the doubt, but losing 3 elite college OL, a good blocking TE, and his bowling ball of a RB is going to make him look average in a hurry. I realize that Yeldon is a stud, but he also came out with fresh legs and he'll also need a yin to his yang to step up behind him this year. Unless the 3 OL and TE are replaced (and Bama's 2nd TE was nothing special from what I saw unless he was blocking as part of a double team -- hell, I'm special when I'm blocking as part of a double team with Fluker as my partner), then I think Bama is in for a longer year on offense against above average Ds than most realize. Any injury to Cooper or Yeldon could be deadly.

McCarron had a bad game. One of two bad games all year. Yeldon was a beast in their opener against Michigan and that was without Lacy. People have said the same thing about Bama every year since 2009 - they're losing too much to keep up the same production. Well they've either kept up or improved every year.

Alabama won that game about as much as Georgia gave it away. I can't wait to watch the rematch this year. Go Dawgs!
