SEC West Conference - Alabama Tides Preview
The Tide suffers a huge experience hit on the defensive side of the ball, so the Alabama Tides will have to lean on its offense more until the defense finds its identity. Expect to see more points put on the board in '06. Their non-conference schedule should instill confidence within the team to get it ready for their rugged SEC schedule.
Defensively, there's not an area the Tide aren't green in. They look to be strongest up front, but the back seven will be the Achilles heel early on. The 10.7 PPG they gave up in 2005 will at the least be doubled this year.

Nine starters return on the offensive side of the ball and they boast one of the best RB corps in the country backed by an O-Line that returns four starters. The ground game should be amongst the top attacks in the league. The WR corps returns almost completely intact, with the lone question mark being that of Tyrone Prothro who missed all of spring practice.
