Strangely enough AFAIK FPI is usually pretty generous towards us. Does FPI take into consideration players transfering out?Preseason FPI and opponents:
UT: 48th (albeit 12/14 in the SEC)
Teams much lower:
Tennessee Tech: FCS/Unranked
Bowling Green: 126th
South Alabama: 118th
Vandy: 93rd
Teams ranked within 20 spots:
USCe: 68th
Pitt: 51st
UK: 39th
Mizzou: 34th
Significantly above us:
Ole Miss: 22nd (26 spots higher)
UF: 14th (34 spots higher)
UGA: 7th
UA: 1st
Despite defensive deficiencies, I have a hard time not finding 6 wins here. Maybe that's orange colored, but this purely statistical model also agrees (predicting 6.6 wins for us).
Henry To'o To'o won't have an easy path to playing time at Alabama
He seriously could be a bench warmer- But daddy knows best, I guess. Doesn't bode well for NFL career, though.

We only have one more spot for transfers right? Seems to me DB isn't as much a need to the coaches as it is to the fans, or, they are just accepting the situation and looking to fix it in recruiting and the next cycle.So Sham is gone again? We really need to get some DBs from the portal. I hope some more good ones enter the portal to be gotten.
