As Nick Saban is addressing reporters from Alabama's final scrimmage of fall camp, yours truly of Touchdown Alabama Magazine has the inside information (via sources) on what happened at Bryant-Denny Stadium.

Notes from the second scrimmage

-All three quarterbacks performed well.

-According to a source, Mac Jones, Bryce Young and Paul Tyson completed over 50% of their passes and each led at least one touchdown drive in different situations.

-Young led a 60-play scoring drive, while Jones connected with Jaylen Waddle on a 55-yard pass that led to a touchdown.

-Jones and Young had three drives, while Tyson had two.

-With Alex Leatherwood out, the first-team offensive line from left to right went as follows: Kendall Randolph, Deonte Brown, Landon Dickerson, Emil Ekiyor Jr. and Evan Neal.

-According to Saban, the offensive line played well.

-When it comes to the defense, Josh Jobe (cornerback), Ronald Williams Jr. (cornerback) and Brian Branch at nickel (star) all were with the second team group.

-Christian Barmore did not scrimmage today, due to a knee injury. Per Saban, he will be out for a few days.

-Justin Eboigbe, a sophomore, was with the first-team on the defensive line with LaBryan Ray and DJ Dale. 

-The first-team secondary consisted of Patrick Surtain II, Marcus Banks, Jordan Battle and Daniel Wright. Malachi Moore was the starter when the first team went to nickel at star.

-Per another source, Ben Davis and Christopher were starters at outside linebacker on run plays. When it got to third down, Alabama went with the pass rushers like William Anderson and Drew Sanders. Keep your eyes on Kevin Harris II as well.

-While the defense swarmed to the ball and looked faster, Saban still wants to see better communication.
