when's the last time a Saban defense was ranked 37th in the nation?


In week 3? I'm not going to try to find exact figures but maybe

2007 when we gave up about 500 yards to Arky in game 3.

Or 2013 when we gave up 628 to aTm in game 2.

Or 2014 when we gave up 400 to West Virginia in game 1.

Or 2015 when we gave up 430 to Ole Miss in game 3.

Or 2016 when we gave up 530 to Ole Miss in game 3.

If Bama is 37th by game 7-8, get back to me. Until then, have a little perspective please.

While I agree with you to some extent, the major difference is we gave up nearly 400 yards, 140+ of that rushing, to Colorado State...all the schools listed above are Power 5 and were decent to good Power 5 schools at that...

Not pushing the panic button, but the D does concern me more than it has in the past couple of years...
