Injuries won't matter - because of extreme depth at virtually every position. This has all the look of an invincible team.

Talent always trumps expierience.
I hope they throttle the suckeyes in 2 weeks.

They're #2 in the coaches poll and with Beanie Wells going down for OSU (update says it's actually his big toe instead of his ankle), should move up to #2 in the AP poll too.

We have heard this before. Long season and a QB with a bad knee.
They have always gotten wacked when they get cocky.
But the schedule definitely will help as most tough games are at home.

For a team that is as great as OSU supposedly is, the loss of Bonzi Wells shouldn't faze them.

Congrats to dd, pillow and the rest of the Tide fans, looks like you are back....

Clemson really did not look anything like a top 10 team.
Their offensive line sucks bad. Clearly their RB's are talented
but if no one can block...

Alabama should be awesome by next year.
SEC looks killer again.
