Wait till next year for some serious offensive line problems. Its going to be ugly.

We have 5 freshman starting on the line?

Experience doesn't mean much if you make the same mistakes.......this division seems to be way better than it was a few years ago....we can improve, but so can other teams......too early to speculate about anything.....

As long as Miles is the coach, I will be expecting at least 2 losses a year. Has been that way since 2008, except for 2011, which he still some how managed too screwed up.

We could have all seniors and run the offensive scheme we've been running and it would be more of the same. Weak teams can stack the box and keep our running game in check.

This team will at best finish 6 - 6. There will not be a preseason poll that figures, "Those 6 -6 guys were young and now that they've lost most of their Offensive Line, they'll be one of the top 20 teams in the country..." Not going to happen. Yes, our team plays on Sundays. But there is a huge talent gap between the Sunday Tigers and even the potential for our baby Tigers. We have lost control of the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball and it does appear that our offensive philosophy has been passed up at the same time our defensive philosophy has been figured out. Les has worked miracles in past seasons. But he had a deeper talent pool than what we're looking at here today. One game would have been an aberration. The two SEC losses this year are about a lot more than just "youth." I love these guys and our skill positions are incredible. But unless LMFAOtao and Travonteburger are the best two DT's on the team by a long shot, then we will have some serious long term issues. When Bear Bryant went into his slump, he headed out to Texas to meet with Royal and Bellard and came back, junked his entire offense and installed the wishbone. The 70's was the greatest decade in Alabama football as a result. If Les goes to a total Auburnish Spread with this team and their talent, we may be unstoppable. But will he? I love the guy but he does appear to be a tad stubborn.

Hard to say, he seems unlikely to let Harris take his true lumps. Jennings will never win any titles as our QB. Also he keeps trotting guys like Hilliard, Magee and Welter and Martin when their younger counterparts should be taking those snaps.

So it seems we still won't be experienced next year.

They will find something to bitch about, because most of them are ex college, and professional football coaches. They are among the elite coaching clan, who know every defensive scheme, and every offensive play.

There will always be something to say... Les Miles is a polarizing topic, no matter the record.



There is your answer.

Youth/experience have nothing to do with many of the issues that some people (myself included) have with CLM.

They will disappear until some minor controversy occurs and then they will blow it way out of proportion as always.
