http://footballrumormill.com/Scoop.htm The past three times the Tide has ended a season with exactly 10 wins, the next season has resulted in a losing record. In fact, the past five times Alabama has come in right on the 10-win number, the Tide has lost at least five games the next season
Wont happen...Sorry. We have everyone coming back next year on O besides Brodie. We will have a better O next year...The LB's and saftey postion will be a question mark but our defense will be there again next year.
You have everyone coming back on offense? Sorry, you lose your center also. Closner was a bigger loss than Prothro. Good luck replacing the most important position on a line that was horrible already. The two tackles will not be there in starting positions next year. Darby can't do it all. And don't give me the "JPW is better" party line. If he was that good, they wouldn't have asked him to greyshirt a year earlier. Your defense will not be there again next year after losing 7 senior starters, including the heart of the LB corps and 3/4 of your secondary. Your depth still sucked this year. I am not predicting a losing record yet, but there is a long way to go until September. Feel free to have all that confidence. It makes the fall that much sweeter.
Maybe Princeton can remind USC of their place. They have twice as many National Titles as the condoms.:hihi:
It will be hard with bama's schedule to get 5 L's next year: http://www.al.com/search/index.ssf?/base/sports/113662890216520.xml?mobileregister?csfine&coll=3&thispage=2 In 2006, Alabama has the most pathetic non-conference scrimmage, I mean schedule, in school history with Hawaii, Louisiana-Monroe, Duke and Florida International (Slippery Rock wasn't available). There are some 6A high school teams in Alabama who could probably break even against this motley crew. All four schools had losing campaigns in 2005 and when you add their cumulative records together, it comes to 16-29. But then, maybe not: Still, the conference games will be choice with road trips to Fayetteville, Gainesville, Knoxville and Baton Rouge and the annual "Fear the Thumb" bowl against Auburn in Tuscaloosa.
31-38-1. Which is a damn sight better than LSU's record (21-43-5) against the Tide. We've played them 1 more time and have 10 more wins. Want to continue this little game, Crawfish?
