re: Alabama fans--2016 season outlook

I think we have the potential to be better, but a lot has to fall in place. Bo has to be who we hope he is. The Juniors that haven't declared need to come back. We get Foster back at WR and should be stacked there. Lose Kelly at C, but the overall line should be better. QB will definitely be a question, but we win the SEC every time we start a new QB....so I feel Lane will keep us on track.

The problem is that other teams are going to be better, too. TN will be better. LSU will be better. Ole Miss just has our number, it seems. USC to start the season. The team will be better, but the road will be harder.

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.

Yeah, I see Bama coming back down to the pack in the next few years just based on the improvement in competition. It's only a matter of time before LSU, Florida, Georgia starts putting together dominant teams. And programs like Tennessee and Ole Miss really look like they're on the upswing and on the verge of putting together something special. The SEC is on its way to being as strong as it was during the Urban Meyer days.
