    Four losses? Two underperforming offensive linemen, a wideout that we have an adequate replacement for, and a damn good receiving tight end who couldn't block very well. How many starters does Bama lose on offense?

    We have very talented, if inexperienced, youngsters ready to step up.

    Yes, that football gets heavy handing it off to a running back. Ford will have a very good year - power and speed.

    The Tigers came close the last two years and did not have a defence one year and a run game the second.;)

    Came close to what?

    Losing 6 or more games each of those years?

    Bama will be preseason #1 and rightfully so.

    Good luck with the bullseye on your back.

    You know how that usually turns out. Ask Florida and LSU.

    I'm really not that stupid, however do you think the players dont get a big head with all the ESPN talking heads loving on them?

    You gotta think at some time that it could and should happen. Down years do happen. That said, I don't think that Miles is as good a coach as Saban and I think Saban proved it. I miss the dude. Yeah, I don't like his merc style, but Alabama fans are hoping that he has shed his old ways.

    Bama will be 10-2 at best next season. The West is ours for the taking. Sorry Bama, your run is over. Welcome to the top, it's a tough road on the way back down. People love to kick you every step of the way backwards.
