But less than a month after Alabama defeated LSU 21-0 in the Allstate BCS National Championship Game in New Orleans, college football spring practices are starting.
Army takes the field Monday, and South Alabama begins its first spring practices as a FBS team (the Jaguars join the Sun Belt Conference this coming season) Wednesday. Texas Tech starts spring practice Friday, and Boston College, Duke, San Diego State, Memphis, TCU and LSU start later this month.
And to add just a little bit to MD's thread..........
Can defending national champion Alabama replace most of its secondary?
The Crimson Tide were hit by heavy personnel losses, especially in the secondary, where cornerbacks Dre Kirkpatrick and DeQuan Menzie and All-America safety Mark Barron left. Rising junior Dee Milliner is the only returning cornerback with any experience, so junior college transfers Deion Belue of Northeast Mississippi Community College and Travell Dixon of Eastern Arizona College -- who both enrolled at Alabama early -- will get long, hard looks this spring.
It will be very interesting to see how things pan out at spring practice. I just know that even with the departure of many of our stars that Bama is talent rich in most all areas. I don't feel like there will be much dropoff.
