The 2008 season rests on one person's shoulders—John Parker Wilson.

Will he win games or lose them?

Last season it seemed like he single-handedly lost two games.  We lost to LSU because of his fumble in the fourth quarter.  We lost to Miss. State because he turned a go-ahead touchdown into a interception that was run back all the way for a touchdown.

Wilson has to eliminate those mistakes and put away games that should be won.  Otherwise, we will be in for a huge walloping by Clemson, Georgia, Tennessee, LSU, and last but not least Auburn.

If Wilson plays every game like he did the Tennessee game, we will be all right.

But if he plays like he did in the Florida State game, we will be in for a very long season.

   Flag as Offensive

   I think you can add some more games Bama lost because of JPW,but hopefully that will not be the case this year.I think with Bama new offensive coordinator(MAC) will make all the difference this year.He will structure the offense to help JPW be more sucessful and the team.Also help JPW as a QB in his mechanical skills.
