And I love em, but they weren't exactly playing at a high level.
This front 7 is gonna be so good.

This front 7 is the closest you will ever see a CFB front 7 to being an NFL front 7.
If I had a mic, I'd drop it.
THAT DL freeing up THOSE LBs is the scariest thing in college athletics.

Still do not have a proven edge rusher. The secondary did not look improved during their spring game, Bama's QBs made them look better then they were. Last year they played 4 teams that had talent on Offense to give them problems. This year they have to play at least 7 teams with that talent.

No. Not even close to 2011.

Dominant front 7?
You return 1 player that was in the top 30 in sacks for the 2014 season.
Your run defense total were good because Bama ranked 114th in Opponents Passing play called %.
Maybe you bama fans should worry about having a better pass defense than S. ALABAMA before you start comparing your defense to 2011.
Only a Gump fanbase can lose their leading sack player and their 2nd best tackling lb and assume their front 7 will dominate.

Your secondary isn't that good.

Alabama hasn't had a conference leader in sacks since Wallace Gilberry in 2007.

Anderson, Pettway, and Evans were all pretty effective on the edge last year, though stats do not back that up. The secondary isn't going to show remarkable improvements 3 months after the Sugar Bowl. This years defense will more than likely not mirror the '11 defense, but it definitely returns some very solid players at key positions this year and more experience in the secondary. Demarcus Milliner and Dre Kirk weren't all-Americans in their first year.

Okay?? The '12 team had to replace Barron, Kirkpatrick, Hightower, Upshaw, Chapman, and Gentry. Was the '12 defense up to '11's play? No, but it was still one of the top defenses, if not the best defense, in the nation that year.
Alabama returns both highly touted defensive frontman in A'Shawn and Reed this year, as well as returning a alpha leader linebacker in Ragland who's play in the 2nd half of the season has him predicted to win the Butkus for the upcoming year. Brown and Jones at the CB position is huge, as well as adding Tucker to the coaching staff. I don't see how predicting Alabama to have the best defense in the conference is far-fetched seeing how Alabama's defense has been pretty much fighting for 1st place in the SEC since 2008.

They can be touted as the next JJ Watt and Reggie White but if they continue to NOT PRODUCE, it doesn't matter.
