Yep, poor little #7 is going to want to know what train ran over him on the way to the endzone.

same (that's all the current staff can manage) although everyone else will be better in the East except for Vandy and South Carolina.

Yeah.... do you remember what led to McElroy's first Int in so long last year?


TM7 tipped pass and intercept by Richardson.


No one has ever run over him. Burton had the right idea and finally jumped over him.

I'm not sure a 180 pound DB is going to easily take on a 225 pound RB.

Tennessee should be better unless everyone really important goes down to injury/gets kicked off the team again.

When I say exceptional, I mean in the ballpark of 9-10 wins for them before bowl season...

Spankings, cursing, and popped blood vessels will happen on the 5th.

Alabama will drop some. Not as much as some of the predictions I see. The O will look good with the most experienced, talented line in the last thirty years(assuming Jonese returns). Lacy, Fowler and Hart are more than adequate RBs. AJ will be returning Nat'l title starter.

D will of course take a hit losing three or four DB will hurt. LB will drop too, but the group will still be top three or so in SEC with Nico, CJ, Depriest. DL will improve a bit. I expect Williams to be a terror next year.

Second or third in SECW and around 12-14 in nation is where Bama starts the year.

gonna be some growing pains for the defense next year but the offense should be pretty good.

Front seven will be good, not worried about that.

The back four could be shaky but also might end up being more than functional. If Lester returns that gives Bama 2/4 DB back with two years each starting exp. Lowery will still be solid in nickel,dime. Hopefully Ha and Sunseri along with a CB will step to the front.

I would not go that far. The defense should be solid, and the passing game should be elite. The offensive line and running back are question marks.

Offensive Line:
LT: D. Thomas Sr./A. Richardson So.
LG: A. Bullard Jr./M. Jackson So.
C: J. Stone Jr./M. Crowder rFr.
RG: Z. Fulton Jr./ J. Schofield Jr.
RT: J. James Jr./K. Kerbyson rFr.

As you can see, all 5 starters return, but Thomas and Bullard are not too good. Tiny and Marcus Jackson need to learn how to pass block so they can get on the field next year. That would improve our offensive line exponentially. Marlin Lane can be a pretty damn good back with some blocking.
