Did you read my post? I said they had a lot of talent, but some of the biggest differences makers weren't 5 stars. They were stacked at a lot of places. However, that is a completely different defense without Dareus. Plus, McElroy was the starting QB over a guy or two more highly rated than him. Then throw in other guys like Javier Arenas (3 star) that were flat out difference makers. I didn't say that it was a perfect comparison. I was only pointing out the fact that you take those 3 stars away from Bama that year and you would have had a completely different team.


Once again you're kidding yourself if you think the higher star talent didn't make a major difference for Bama in that championship season. That was a horrible comparison. Bama didn't win a national title on the back lower-rated talent in general.

The bigger question is: Why is CBP whipping our arse with 5.7 3 stars?

I respectfully disagree with you. Heck, Bama's starting LT that year was James Carpenter, a 2 star out of high school that I believe was originally committed to Iowa State. They had talent, yes. However, it was a lot more than talent that won that championship. They had superior coaching and they were probably one of the most dedicated teams I have ever seen.

True story. Overall, this is very weak compared to a lot of the Arkansas-LSU threads of the last 6 months.

I'm sick and fukking tired of hearing all this flagship talk. Ark is a ONE trick pony...Thats all. No defense. He can't recruit the elite talent to be a dominant defense. Not a flame, but they're the ttech of the sec.

I think what we have reached here is a put up or shut-up moment. This isn't about where we fall in statistical rankings. We can show facts proving improvements are made (defense). We can show a Win progression. What we can't show is a skin that is meaningful. A scoop and score could have rendered this thread null. It didn't happen and now all the "proof" and rhetoric in the world won't help the cause. This only works with world-beaters like LSU and Alabama.

IF we win the West this season, mindsets will change. IF we lose the SECCG, things will get worse. But just like all things pre-season, all we have today are IFs. Passes the time.
