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.

no one saw derrick this good..Bo is a clone but from what I am hearing he is a shiftier type of back. laugh all you want. But with a more stable number of backs Bo wont be asked to carry the load

Well, in all fairness, he did say "if bo lives up to hype". Bama fans have been known to hype their players a bit. Will he have 2,000 yards? No. We will be back to a 2 RB rotation next year. I do think he can be a monster, though.

Every year, we're told by LSU fans how the next Bama RB will never be as good as the last one. Coffee, Ingram, Richardson, Lacy, Yeldon, Henry... The beat goes on.

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.

and with a more athletic QB other teams may not be able to stack the line. I do think our OL will be better. Our RT was awful. I would like to know his grade for the Natty game.

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.

I thought Ragland decided to stay!

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.

Yeah, he did. Last year. He's a senior now.

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.

the irony is that our D let us down in the Natty game and that was to have been the strength of the team.
