Wow two of them has us as overrated. I think they need to look over at the state of Mississippi for that.

i can understand why these guys think Alabama is overrated offensively. it IS entirely possible that the revamped offensive line won't be able to block an unwanted phone call.

what i don't understand is how they think our opponents are going to score enough points to win. :fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight::fight:

I like how one guy says we will flop becuase McElroy will struggle.

Then another guy says McElroy is one of the next household names.

okaaaaay

Some serious hating going on.
Can they really believe a qb that has been practicing and learning the system for 2 years is gonna be worse than JPW. JPW toughened up a lot last year but that did not make him someone the team cannot replace. To list him, Coffee and ANDRE SMITH as reasons to why Bama will flop is laughable and show how little he and the rest know about the talent on this team. The OLINE is the big question mark because the other areas are so strong. IMO.
Bama playing or "getting exposed" (that is pretty funny) by Utah has nothing to do with this year or this team, PERIOD.

I dont understand y they say we or overrated. We will be great on D and our O-line will do enough for the running game to take pressure off G-Mac and he will put up great numbers.
