Oh i know he enjoys it. Curiousity just got the best of me. I wanted to know if he actually thought those things...or was just saying them to get a reaction from Auburn fans.
Or you are blinded by the same stupidity that thinks Auburn won't be much worse without their 4 saviors.
we're definently losing a lot of great players, but we've done very well recruiting the last couple of years. i don't think we'll go undefeated, but i do think we have a good chance at winning the west. i don't expect to win it, I think that LSU has the better team at this point, but we have a schedule that should allow us to win a lot of games early in the season. our defense will be stellar and the only thing that i'm not sure about is QB on offense. I think we'll be alright everywhere else. not national championship caliber, but SEC West caliber if we get the pieces to fall in place.
Gotta disagree , just a little. IMO, Bama is not at the same level as LSU or Auburn. They simply aren't. Although they have a talented and seasoned defense, their depth is ridiculously thin. Their O-line has been completely decimated and will be considered patchwork, at best - and that's if they all remain healthy. I admire Brodie's courage, but he's a sitting duck against the speed rushes he'll see from UT, LSU, and Auburn. Anything more than 7 wins is wishful thinking among the optimists. And before you believe this is just "hate" spilling out, let me remind you that few opponents follow Bama football as closely as an AU fan. You may be correct about the SEC Champion being unpredictable, but the path to the West slot is a much easier vision to forsee.. The winner of the AU-LSU game will be the breakaway frontrunner.... and we all know it.
Caddy, I agree with one little exception. I think Bama's D will have more depth this year due to a couple of good and bigger recruiting classes as well as getting so many people back. And defense can carry a team to a West title, although I think LSU and Auburn's defense will be just as good as Bama's D. Therefore, It should be a battle between us.
Mike Shula will never win the SEC, imo. They need someone new. Lame offensive schemes and even with 3rd stringers being out there....the formations are quite aweful...
When they ran three straight obvious goaline plays up the middle against a stingy auburn defense on the 4 yard line, I knew they were done with any creativity. after they failed that red zone attempt at a TD, you could tell the team just gave up after that...
the LSU-AU game will be giagantic this season! if yall can get by UT and UF(which is a good possiblility since they are at home) and we can squeez out some semi-tough games there may be a battle of undefeated teams...how awesome would that be!
