#22 seems about right for us. if somehow chizik's defense can stop the run, we'll be top 15.

bama #1??? i watched their spring game -- they're awful! (which is understandable when you look at how many great players they lost to the NFL). all bama's QB candidates for next year are mediocre. forget about #1 this year. if saban can turn that bunch into a top 10 team it will be one of his greatest achievements.

And now Bama gets to deal with a felony charge against a returning star.
