re: Calling it now, defense will put up 2011 numbers.

Your thread title as entirely too early and unrealistic. You cannot predict that kind of performance before the year. Will they be good? Yes. How good? We will see. I don’t think this team will be as flashy as the 2011 defense. Honestly it looks more like a prototypical Saban at Alabama defense with an exceptionally stout front seven and what could be smothering secondary.

I’m not expecting strip fumbles for tds or loads of picks but rather a suffocating type where it is just a chore to move the ball against.

Either way I’m hoping for a great season just not willing to say 2011 yet
