Alabama has proven to reload rather than rebuild. The defense next year will not even be close to this year's squad, but good enough to win a lot of games.





9-3 next year.

With Dee Hart behind him, I really don't see Alabama's run game falling off any. New talented WR's coming in. McCarron with another year experience. I see Alabama '12 edition being a complete 180. On par defense, with an explosive offense. Still contenders!


I always thought they were full of shite when they say Bama fans are delusional. I stand corrected.

Lacy's running style reminds me a bit of Eric Dickerson.

Why? Alabama was in a similar situation in 2010. A veteran offense and a completely retooled defense. It's not like there are not talented players up and down the Alabama roster. Winning 10-12 games in 2012 isn't out of the question for Alabama. That was just as possible in 2010, with just 10 returning starters.

McCarron better do alot of improving in order for ya'll to think that 2010 may happen again. McElroy was great as for as being the type of QB to manage a game and not win the game for ya'll. There is no Julio Jones on your team. Your defense is losing your major D contributers. Pesonally don't see ya'll being that relevant until '13. Don't get me wrong ya'll still have a chance of being good but the media had a lot to do with Bama being what they were in 2010. They love Saban's balls all in and around their mouths.

McCarron has done a good job. He may have helped cost the Lsu game, taking a sack on third down in OT. Growing pains, and one thing I feared. GMac never cost us a game. McCarron will learn and get better.

We'll have a good possession receiver next year and the WR corps will be improved. Losing Maze and Hanks will hurt, but Bell, White and Norwood are starting to step up. Carter should be a helpful addition.

Losing several, returning several. Secondary will be the weaker spot. Losing at least 3 there. The line will be replinished. Mosely, DePriest, Johnson (I think returns) leading the LB's.

10 wins next year. Outside shot at 9 or 11.

Maybe if your schedule works in your favor. I just don't see you having a season as good as 2010. To many question marks for me to agree with you yet. Like I said earlier at the start of that season, the media had Bama ranked higher than they should have been ranked to start the year. Bama was to hyped up by them.

Of course we will win at least 10. We have for 4 years straight, next year will be no different.

I like Hart and Eddie a lot. But I feel people completely overlook Fowler...and we also don't utilize him enough.

brb not realizing we have a 250lb that actually possesses moves and speed to go along with spectacular brute strength.

I work with an Alabama fan. Last year, after the bowl game he said, "We pretty much proved several times that we were the best team in the nation this year."
