Alabama opened the season Saturday with a blowout victory against the Trojans. “We’re glad to have him as a part of the organization and hopefully he’ll be able to get back on his feet professionally and this will be beneficial to him”.

While the redshirt senior started every game at right guard last season, he was relegated to working with the second-team offense during the spring due to weight and conditioning issues.
After winning five national championships and establishing himself as the single greatest coach of his generation (if not all-time), Nick Saban has earned a reputation for a few different things. Even though they lost the quarterback, they have a transfer quarterback who started at another Division I school.
Brohm said Saban’s defense against his possession passing attack won’t be a mystery.
As the first half wound down and No. 1 Alabama began to assert its dominance with a 17-3 lead, ABC cameras caught several Tide players and coaches engaged in a bit of a scuffle near the defensive bench.
The Crimson Tide are 10-0 in season openers under Coach Nick Saban, including seven nonconference games at neutral sites against Power Five teams that they have won by an average margin of 23 points. “We played a very good team”, said Helton. Western Kentucky has been a solid program for several years running and this is a big chance for them to show they belong with the biggest names in college football.
It just appears so inevitable so early after a 52-6 dismantling of USC. “Y’all never asked, but I wouldn’t have told you if you would have asked, but you didn’t ask”.
“This is a good team”, Saban said, speaking again about the Hilltoppers.
Clemson struggled to put away Auburn, who produced little offense for much of the game while swapping three quarterbacks in and out. They are nearly never happy unless you win the whole thing.
Taylor started all 15 games at right guard for the Tide last season, but was suspended this offseason after being arrested for driving under the influence and leaving the scene of an accident.
With his USC days behind him, Sarkisian is looking to work with Alabama as an assistant, per a report from USA TODAY Sports.
When Saban spoke to the media on Monday, you’ll notice that he didn’t say that Sarkisian is done dealing with what he called “personal things”. Sims, a junior, left the Tide’s season-opening win against USC this past Saturday with a bruised shoulder.
Alabama returns to action this weekend against Western Kentucky.
