TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — It’s essentially become known as the annual “The sky is falling” week surrounding the University of Alabama football program, complete with second-guessing and suffocating pessimism.
It occurs whenever the Crimson Tide lose a game, although it's a little different this time three games into the 2015 season because there are some legitimate concerns about the quarterback position.
Before this season, Alabama had seen only four players start at the position since 2006—part of the era now known as Before Saban: John Parker Wilson, Greg McElroy, AJ McCarron and Blake Sims. Uncharacteristically, the Crimson Tide have used two already in 2015 after seeing five players compete for the job.
