When does Fall Camp kick off? About 40 days till kickoff, so salivating at the start of the beginning of the year.

these comments always make me smile. i just have to laugh st some people's jealousy and hypocrisy. it's not like if any other team were in the same position as Alabama they wouldn't be doing the same thing....even auburn. yet they act like it's only for Alabama they would do this.

Didn't they do one of these things prior to the 2010 season? If I have the year right, please no repeat of that waste of talent.

It's easy to associate one with the other. But, that can't be taken at face value. Six opponents coming off their bye weeks before Bama. And the injuries? '10 was worse than '17 (even with taking into account so many at one position group.)

For what it is worth there are players on campus that didn't even know ESPN has been on campus producing this series.
