It should be the first time in many years that the secondary is actually the strength of the defense, rather than the Achilles heel. There will inevitably be a big drop off defensively. They're losing too much from a historically great defense.
Offense is a question mark. Hurts will have to make huge strides. If not, they should throw the QB competition back open. Unlike many, I have zero confidence in Sarkisian after Monday night.
Realistically, I expect a dropoff next year. On paper 2018 seems more realistic for another run.

The defense still should be solid next year. As long as the offense is better, the defense can afford a drop off. It won't be a huge drop off, Saban has had a top ten defense just about every year since 08.
The defense is still loaded with talent, the entire starting D line will be 5 star players, could have 2-3 5 star linebackers start, with 2-3 more in the secondary.
The offense has a chance to be Saban's best if Hurts can progress as a passer. The OL should be the best since 12, WR still loaded and one of the best running back corps that Bama has had. Also, I think we need to give Sark more then a week as OC, before we lose confidence in him.
With the SEC still down next year and a favorable schedule, Bama should be 11-1 or 12-0. The toughest team Bama will play is FSU.
Bama will likely lose more impact players after 17 then they did after this year. The SEC should be much better in 18 with all the young QB that played this year.
