These are the position groups of interest for Alabama heading into first scrimmage

Talking season is over as Alabama football is in fall camp.

After six practices, the Crimson Tide takes to Bryant-Denny Stadium Saturday for its first scrimmage. Kalen DeBoer and Alabama’s coaching staff want to see which players can execute plays, be physical, be fast, and communicate well.

Several position groups will be on display, but the ones of the most interest are below.

Offensive tackle

Nick Saban had competition every where on the offensive line in his tenure at Alabama, but this is the first year I can remember where the interior of the front is already set early in fall camp. 

The Crimson Tide has its left guard (Tyler Booker), center (Parker Brailsford), and right guard (Jaeden Roberts) in order.
