Do you think your team will be better next year? I honestly thought Bama was going to take a step back this season. That obviously didn't happen.
Yes, you lose some ballers to the NFL but there is so much talent on your team. It looks like you guys are returning key contributors at linebacker and will obviously reel in another great class.
Who is going to take over at QB? The road schedule looks tough, and I'm expecting another classic in Baton Rouge on Nov. 5th. I believe we will be much improved, so it should be fun.
Hopefully this won't turn into a troll fest. Congrats on another ring. Looking forward to our game.

Well, so far we haven't had as many underclassmen declare for the draft as I feared. Tim Williams, Eddie Jackson and Ryan Anderson are coming back, and that's pretty big.
O.J. Howard, Reuben Foster and Jonathan Allen could potentially come back.

Blake Barnett seems to be the fan favorite. We'll have to see how everything shakes out through the offseason.

I think it will be about like most years - we'll be in the mix. The ball has to bounce the right way to go all the way though, just like any year.

New QB should be a game manager. Like we have not heard that before.
We got a lot of returning experience among our DB's. Great returning LB's who say plenty of PT.
DL will take a step back but if Allen stays it should be just a minor hiccup.
OL should be better
RB should see no drop off if Bo lives up to hype.
We return all of the WRs except for white boy.
REturn our kickers.

I think we will be better than we were this year. Defense will probably not drop off at all and the BDs will be much better with respect to experience. The offense will beich improved. I think we have a shot to repeat. The problem is going to be that a lot of SEC teams are going to beich better and we play them. LSU, UT, Ole Miss, Arkansas are all going to be very good teams. We may all hurt each other next year.

Our WR corps will be better, so will our offensive line, and our RBs, while not as battle tested as I would like, were heavily recruited and should have the talent to do good things. QB will be a position battle to watch. Cooper Bateman, Blake Barnett, and David Cornwell will be fighting for the starting job. Should be a good competition.
Our DL should take a step back, and the loss of Ragland will definitely hurt, but there is still talent and experience in the front seven. Our back four will be a force next year though.

If no more juniors declare by Monday, unless Blake Barnett turns into JJ 2.0 I'll be surprised if Bama doesn't win the west next season.

Have the talent for 15-0 'Ship. Or they could go 10-3. Comes down to focus, execution, luck

Defense will be awesome. The DL will take a slight step back but still be elite. LB's will be stacked and DB's will be loaded. It sounds crazy but HB might be our weakest position next year. I have not been impressed with Harris at all. Scarborough will need to stay healthy. Stacked at WR. If Barnett or Bateman can be a standard Bama QB, we will be right back as favorites in the SEC.

How much are the game checks at Bama to convince every junior that isn't a guaranteed 1st round to come back?
Posted on 1/15/16 at 8:16 pm to NFLU
No trolling...We should be a little better overall team next year...as been posted earlier a small drop off on DL....our OL was one of the worst under Nick Saban, but should be alot better. Wrs should be deepest it has ever been. Secondary and Kickers should be very good. I'm very excited about our QBs...If you going to get us it better be early by November we will be rolling.

I THINK WE CAN WIN THE WEST,WITH A LITTLE LUCK!!!

If Jon Allen, R Foster and Howard return I think this team can do anything from repeat to lose three games. QB will come down to Barnette, Bateman and Cornwell. If we can get at least an AJ type first season out of them I like our chances. Bama had one of the most difficult schedules in the nation this year and next year looks more difficult so it's really hard to tell.

Going to be a lot like this year I suspect.
Defense will be solid, but not quite as strong in the DL.
Offense will depend on what kind of QB play we get. It was shaky early, but improved as the year went by.
I expect a hiccup along the way, but as usual the west beats itself up enough for Bama to make the SECCG again.

Honestly, I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU CAN possibly HAVE A BETTER DEFENSE THAN 2016. ONE OF THE BEST I HAVE EVER SEEN.

So hard to say, but "better" than 14-1, SEC title, and National Title?
Odds are, regardless of anything else, that the answer is simply "no".
Especially considering that we did that in an SEC that went 9-2 in bowl games, plus our big OOC opponent finished with 10 wins and a top 25 ranking as well.
Could we repeat? Sure. Will we? Odds are against us.
I think the number of returning juniors that we've had confirm, so far, gives us a fighting chance to accomplish another NC.

I honestly think we will be better. Look what kiffin has done with Blake sims, I loved him but he can't make a practice squad in the Canadian football league... And Coker, loved him as well, but put him on another team and he's probably a backup. Blake Barnett is a 5 star qb, only one we have ever had. With all of our wrs. Get ready for the Blake and Bo show. Plus our D is going to be so nasty... Again.
