Bama D (for Tam)
Alabama ranked second in the country last season in total defense and scoring defense, and the Tide lost nine starters from that unit, including three projected high NFL draft picks. Yet several veterans believe that Alabama's defense could be even better this fall -- which is a scary thought for the rest of the college football world.
"I think with the young guys we have in this year," LB Dont'a Hightower said, "if we can teach them the techniques and the way to do things right, I feel like we have a little bit more talent this year than we did last year."
Potential is such a tricky word, of course, and the underclassmen still have to pick up the finer points of a Nick Saban defense. "They're young, but they're athletic and they're talented," RB Mark Ingram said. "There's lot of athletes out there. They get to ball. They make plays. They just have to get comfortable with the defense and know everything that's going on."
A veteran QB, the best RB tandem in the country (including the Heisman winner) and an even better defense? Makes a return trip to the BCS title game sound like a sure thing.
