Maybe because they just lost 7 games in the last 5 years and won three BCS national championship games.


Maybe because they are on a two game losing streak.
The IB loss was a total embarrassment and then they doubled-down and got skull-drug by Choklahoma. It's going to take awhile for everyone to forget that train wreck of an ending to last season.

What is different about this two game losing streak as compared to the last one? Who was predicting Alabama to win it all after losing to Utah?

I think most Bama fans forgot about the Utah fiasco by the end of the 2009 season, don't you?

And congrats on your team's victory in the Outback Bowl with the second coming of Jordan Jefferson. Coming off of a two bowl game losing streak, I am sure it was a relief to see tDecline halted.

Wait, you're posting in a thread that asks Why so much preseason love for Bama?, which exists because so many people across CFB are again predicting Alabama to have a successful season/title run. Which would make it pretty fricking obvious that the "trainwreck" as you so stupidly put it, has indeed been forgotten.

All you need to concern your peanut brain with is Alabama going for 4 in a row over LSU this season.

The last time we lost two games in a row we came back with 20 straight wins. Just saying.

"Maybe because they are on a 2 game losing streak"

If only there was a recent example of a team coming off a similar season with a two losses to end the year including the Sugar Bowl going into the next season with a new quarterback and a new offensive coordinator. Cough....errr...2009. 2013/2014 is so similar to 2008/2009 it's scary. What happened the last time Alabama came off a terribly disappointing end to a promising season with a new starting quarterback and an otherwise stacked roster. Hint...it ended really well.
