• What Nick Saban has said about each 'O' position in camp •

• 2023 Bama Sports 2023 •  Tuscaloosa, AL With 10 practices and one scrimmage completed, here's an analysis of Alabama's roster from the head coach himself. Quarterbacks: The No. 1 question in camp has unexpectedly been a throughline in most of Saban's opening comments.  As opposed to addressing Jalen Milroe, Ty Simpson or Tyler Buchner's performances individually, Saban has referenced what he wants from the position overall.  After the Tide's scrimmage on Aug. 12, Saban once again referenced ball security and execution as part of the evaluation. Offensive line: Saban has spoken glowingly about a couple of the returning players assuming larger roles this season, like Terrence Ferguson and Seth McLaughlin.  Saban said he looks at Ferguson, who's worked with the first-team group at left guard, as a starter after displaying his 'explosive power and body quickness' through camp.  McLaughlin has had the 'right stuff' while developing into a reliable center. The group's unanswered question is at left tackle, where Elijah Pritchett and Kadyn Proctor are battling. Running backs: Alabama may have one of the most talented running back units in the country. As offensive coordinator Tommy Rees put it, UA is 'spoiled.'  Saban said special teams can be a place for its running backs that may not be as featured in the offense. Wide receivers: The wide receiver room remains largely the same with Jermaine Burton and Ja'Corey Brooks returning.  From the beginning of camp, Saban has harped on reducing mental errors, which means limiting penalties for the team but specifically cutting down on drops for the pass-catchers. Tight ends: Rees isn't expected to introduce a whole new offense, instead adding 'wrinkles' to the Tide's existing system. That could mean more production from tight ends in the passing game.
