So there's nothing unrealistic about expecting a national championship at Alabama in any given year while Saban is there.



I'm going to be the odd guy out and say I don't expect this to be a great year for Bama. New OC (who I have a lot of questions about), new DC, and almost no returning starters on defense.

This could easily be Bama's first 2 loss regular season since 2010. I hope not, but I could definitely see it this year.

Lsu- cast off 3rd string qb and they speak like trace mcsorely transferred there. They lost chark, have no rb for the first time in years and a bunch of questions on defense with the most overrated lb in football. Throw in orgeron and its a 6-6 or 5-7 season. I think they have a db that tried to sneak in someone's else's urine on a drug test they are trying to get reinstated but who knows what difference he'll make or even if he can pass a urine test. I'm sure he didn't smoke the whacky just that one time.

Gotta be LSU. That team returns basically no starters at the offensive skill positions, and loses the only decent blockers on their abysmal offensive line from a year ago.

Yet, people are predicting 9 or 10 wins with the toughest schedule seen since 2011. It makes no sense.

This the first post I've seen in awhile where you didn't use 500+ characters

Also that guy coached a QB that absolutely destroyed y'all, and no one else

But at least A&M is dictating LSU coaching hires right

So what? We're talking football, and specifically the question about Florida's alleged "greatness" as a football program. Given that you never won an SEC football championship until 1991...factoring in the vacated championship form 1984...to attempt to count Florida as one of the great SEC football programs historically is downright comical.

You have one more SEC championship than Ole Miss. Let that sink in for a moment. Georgia and Tennessee have almost twice as many as you, and Mike Dubose has won one since Tennessee did last.

Oh look, another Alabama fan trying to have it both ways when it comes to stuff being vacated.

Ok, smart guy...tell us which of Alabama's 26 SEC football championships have been vacated.

I'll wait.

And yet you ignore all the wins that were vacated (and forfeited) at Alabama (including Saban).

We're talking about championships. I'm know you're a Florida fan, but jeez...try to keep up.

Factor in all those vacated Bama wins...how exactly does that qualify Florida as a historically "great" SEC football program?

I would like to think you have more brain cells than you're using. I really would.

Florida was good for awhile, not many folks worry about them anymore.

Please go on. Explain to us why you think Florida qualifies as a historically great SEC football program.

Come on, big guy. You've waded out here into the deep water. No one is going to throw you a rope.

Agreed and been saying it since the beginning of the off-season championship run. Sorry bulldogs but you guys probably won't be able to do better than 8-4.
