We're hitting the 30-day mark for football's return (!!!!!!! - shhhh only say that in parenthesis or it'll take longer), with a number of teams starting Fall camp this week, including LSU on Wednesday.
And you can bet that of course we'll always have as much camp coverage from the LSU angle, but how about some of the other teams in the league? Here's one of the biggest questions each team team in the league will be facing this August, whether it's about personnel, coaching or otherwise.
Alabama...What is the second option? Option one for the Crimson Tide offense will most certainly be pounding Eddie Lacy. And behind an excellent offensive line, you can almost certainly pencil the hard-running Lacy in for more than 1,000 yards and double-digit touchdowns. But what's next? A.J McCarron will likely be fine at quarterback, but is there the type of playmaker on this team that will make passing that much more attractive? The single most underrated part of Trent Richardson's game in 2011 was his value on every down. His receiving abilities allowed Bama to line him up at a couple of different positions last year, much like Brad Smelley (whom will also be missed). True freshman T.J. Yeldon, a former four-star all-purpose back, seems to be the leader in the clubhouse for the understudy role. There's no question that there's talent ready to step on to the field in Tuscaloosa, the question right now is proving it.
