I was watching some show on ESPN and this was a stat that I wasn't aware of but Anthony Steen didn't allow a sack all year last year and with Cyrus and like you said some good talent coming up I'm not worried at all hell Bama was out of the Championship the last two years in a row due to loses and they got back in it and won both.



I always love the rant. If you don't force yourself to have perspective, these guys will have you thinking you're going to suck every year because of the talent you lose, ignoring the fact that everyone else loses players too and the guys coming in will have a lot more training. This isn't the NFL.

You've never heard me say "dynasty." I just don't refer to winning multiple National Championship seasons in that way. I do think if Bama wins a two more in the next four years then the people that do use those terms have validity to do so..

To win a championship in any sport at any age level you have to have a little luck somewhere along the way in the season.

Bama will not be as good on the offensive line: true

Bama will lose two or more games due to this: False

Bama offensive line will gel before they have to play anyone with a pass rush: True

Bamas offensive line will still be top 3 in the conference: true

Bama/LSU game will decide the West again this year: True

Nope. They said that A&M is the only game they have to worry about. Even though they escape DV by the hair of their chinny chin muddafrickin chin. We gets no respect i tells ya. No respect at all!

Are you an LSU fan...

Exactly!

LSU fans don't say or think things like this....



ETA: IMO LSU will still be Bama's toughest game of the year....... other than UGA..

How did TAMUs O- line prove it ? Bama out gained A&M in the game , Barret played hurt and Lacy had a concussion.

We had 2 O-L go in the top 15 , another at 57 or so and KIYANDJO ( close enough ) will be a top 5 pick.... GET REAL.

Why would the Alabama training staff play Eddie Lacy if he had a concussion?

Admittedly, I don't remember if he finished out the game or not. However, if he did, why wasn't he taken out? Concussions and football are a very, very serious matter right now.

Had Jake Matthews come out A&M would have had two in the top ten. Your argument only further proves mine.

A&M's offensive line looked dominant against an outstanding Alabama defense. Alabama's line and specifically Barrett Jones got worked over against an average Aggie defense. It was clear whose offensive line played better that game.

21-0 has made you a bitter man. Three in a row over LSU is going to make it even worse. I'm concerned.

So one game proves A&M has a better offensive line? No other offensive line was a consistent and dominant as Bama's last year

A&M's was... just because you think A&M's wasn't consistent doesn't mean that was the case. And we never had as bad as a performance as y'all had against A&M...

He took a helmet to helmet shot on the next to last series , ( not called ) which is why our best RB didn't play on the last 2 series.

First and 6 at the goal line and no Eddie Lacy.
