I have been watching the UA since 1968 and this is the best defense especially the front 7 and the secondary is improving each game, The 92 defense was very good the 92 team had a better secondary but not the front 7 Kudos to Saban and the defensive line coach and Kirby Smart. Roll Tide

I've been going back and forth with this guys on Landthieves. Their argument is the Big 12 is tougher because they all play 9 conference games and that the SEC has a built in advantage because we only play 8. Never mind the fact that outside of the top 4, OU, OSU, Baylor and TCU, that only Tech has 6 wins. Their argument to that is well West Virgina, ISU, Texas and K-State are good teams, but the record doesn't reflect it because they all have losses to the top 4, but beat each other adding in more losses. You can't explain to them that they lose because they aren't good teams and the Big is really 2 good teams, 2 solid teams, 4 meh teams and 2 trash teams.

Yeah, I'm more worried 'bout the offense this year...the D should keep us in most games...

Loved that 92 D as well...and while I'd agree with you 'bout the front 7 comparison, the 92 DL starters were just as good, but did not have the depth. Curry and Copeland were beasts...and I think they're the only Bama DEs that were bookend All-Americans in the same year...
