I agree. I also tend to just listen to what Coach Saban says. He stated that there was more of a gap between the backup and third stringer last year than between Tua and the backup. Of course, the backup was Mac and the third stringer was Lia. Now, Lia may have made up a lot of that ground since then, but Mac was also able to get valuable experience at the end of the year, and he played very well other than the two pick-sixes at AU.The best observer is often the dispassionate observer. Well and succinctly put.
