Everyone knows that Alabama is a great program...but when you see the actual numbers on paper as to what they have done under Nick Saban...it is staggering:

"Over the past 10 seasons, Alabama has gone 125-14 overall and 71-9 in SEC play. It has won five national championships and five SEC championships and made all four College Football Playoff fields to date."

The following summary paragraph outlines their potential "achilles heel" issues for this season:

"Opportunities for hiccups include the mass turnover in the secondary, potential staff chemistry issues with so many new assistants, and the possibility of Saban’s high-profile quarterback derby becoming a distraction. But with so much offensive firepower and such a manageable schedule, it would be more surprising than not if Alabama does not make a fifth consecutive Playoff appearance."

As has been stated on Power Mizzou several times...a subscription to The Athletic is well worth the money if you are an avid sports fan.
