Groundhog Day for our punter?

Punter Mike Berner had always been identified as a “Senior” last season, and everyone rightfully assumed that meant 2018-19 was his final season.  However, it appears his Alabama career may not be over just yet. Bernier is listed on the 2019 roster as “ Redshirt Senior”.

Does JK Scott have a little brother? Just curious.

Starting guard Deonte Brown was suspended prior to the Orange Bowl, and he missed the Championship game as well. Also suspended were reserve OL Elliot Baker and reserve TE Kedrick James. All three are believed to have been given a six game ban that rolls over into the coming season’s first four games.  BTW, Baker is not on this year's roster (he gone).

Cornbread Brown being suspended for the first four games would mean 3 brand new OL starters.  While our first four games should be cake walks, it would've been nice to have developed some consistency and communication within the ranks by the 5th game @ Texas A&M and 6th game vs. Tennessee.

We're pretty loaded at the O line. I think we'll be fine. I do hate that we have to wait for Brown, though.

One thing for sure our future looks great at O-line and if I was a RB I would love to come to Alabama and be running behind this next 3 to 4 year group. RTR!

Kyiq McDonald is also missing from the roster.

The OL has to play well as a group though.  Usually without a lot of practice as a unit, the outcome is less than the sum of the individual parts.

Bingo!  That's a goodie.

Two things I like: 

For 8 out of 13 teams, Bama is their longest losing streak.
(Bama can't be its own longest losing streak.  A-day doesn't count.)

Bama's 1 game loss to South Carolina is it's longest active streak. 
That game was in 2010. 
Bama plays South Carolina again on 9.14.19.

It is ridiculous that we have not played USCe since 2010. A senior that stays for 4 years should play each conference team once at a minimum in his career. That is one another reason why I think the SEC should add a 9th conference game. The other reason is three cupcakes is too many.

pmull I use to think the same thing BUT, now with the injuries we accumulate during a long season I think 3 cupcakes gives us healing time. RTR!

Nick Saban said as much, except maybe the "ridiculous" part.  And as he prefers Little Debbies, three cupcakes is indeed too many.

I myself have mixed feelings about it, given the length of the season, level of competition and potential for injury.  Yes, it would be great to play all SEC East teams over 4  years.  But eliminate two cupcakes in the process.
