PROS
1) They won the national championship last year, started the year at #1, and haven't lost yet. Why move them down?
2) They play in the toughest conference in the nation (it burns my fingers typing those words) and are clearly the class of the SEC thus far.
3) They have the best trio of wins (vs. Penn State 24-3, @ Arkansas 24-20, vs. Florida 31-6) of any team in the nation and it isn't that close.
4) The returning Heisman trophy winner (Mark Ingram) coupled with Trent Richardson gives them arguably the best running back duo in the nation; their offense is clearly better than last year.
CONS
1) The defense returns only 3 starters from last year, and the only good passing offense they've faced to date, Ryan Mallett and Arkansas, exposed the secondary and should have won the game.
2) Nick Saban is a douche (aka I have no other legitimate arguments).
