re: Bama, OM & LSU among CFP clear cut favorites for 2016

I said we lose two d linemen from the TWO DEEP. And I don't see why us losing good players is any worse than anyone else losing them. Nkemdiche and Elston are the only two players we lose that anyone in the SEC can name off hand.
I look at who's coming back. Unlike some, we were deep on the D line and return three starters plus Isaac Gross(redshirted w injury and had been a three year starter). We are thin at linebacker but return two of our top four contributors losing CJ, who was an end for four years, and Denzel who didn't finish the year anyway. Return every corner on the roster. We lose two of three safeties but return the one who has first round NFL stock. Return all kickers. 6/8 from receiving rotation, 2/3 top rushers, most of our oline starts for the year, and a quarterback that will likely end this season with the third highest single season passing total in SEC history. Plus add a top ten recruiting class. If we lose games next year it'll be because good teams just beat us. Not because we are rebuilding. We have the talent to make a run at it.
