[quote]Alabama coach Nick Saban thinks his old cornerback Dee Milliner will fit in well with the Jets, who selected him with the ninth pick in the NFL draft on Thursday night. But Saban would prefer not to hear about how Milliner is the heir apparent to the departed Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis.

They were great defensively but their offense was nothing special. Their first two scoring drives were caus...

He's right to a certain extent. It's ridiculous to have a permanent cross-division foe while maintaining an eight-game conference schedule. It hurts teams like Florida, Tennessee, and LSU who play a harder cross-division foe than others and SEC teams can go six years without playing one another in t...
