AJ McCarron might very well have a bust-out second year as Alabama’s starting quarterback.

Playing under new offensive coordinator Doug Nussmeier could very well help, and so could Nick Saban’s stated desire for a more “explosive” passing game.

Also, that great game McCarron had against LSU in last season’s national championship game could very well prove to be a catalyst. Without a doubt, his performance in that game did more than any other to turn perceptions among many Alabama fans.

There’s a sense that McCarron could become far more than the dreaded “game manager” of an offense loaded with top running backs, but one thing is certain about his pending junior season. It will answer a burning question.

Was his performance against LSU a matter of talent finally realized or one-game tactics maximized?

If it was more tactics than talent, then McCarron is set up to become more a Twitter warrior than Alabama’s next Joe Namath, and say this much about that Twitter war with now-former-LSU Heisman Trophy finalist Tyrann Mathieu ...

AJ and the other players are saying the right things.  17 more days!

If AJ and the rec's can stretch the field where teams can't load the box to stop the run, Bama can have a big year.

And I thought you guys knew football lingo.  I will now explain it for you.  If AJ, the QB, can complete some passes downfield to the rec's, those who catch the ball, then the defense, those who tackle players with the ball, can't load the box, the area near the line of scrimmage making it harder to run the ball. :)

I know me, also.  I hope I don't have to explain everything.  The game notes will be extremely long.

I reject the premise of the article. McCarron has nothing to prove, he won a National Championship with a great game, period.
