In 17th season, Saban as exuberant as ever even with different kind of roster
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Alabama has a clear standard of excellence. So much so that without a clear first-round pick on the roster, this is classified as one of Nick Saban's less talented rosters. Despite this Alabama opens as aFor this week's Behind Enemy Lines, I sat down with BamaCentral's Katie Windham to preview the Razorbacks against the Crimson Tide in Tuscaloosa this week.
DS: Six weeks into the season, do you think that going through the whole circus at quarterback starting and trying three different guys ended up being a blessing in disguise for Milroe? KW: I think at halftime against Mississippi State they had 157 rushing yards or something in that range and then they had 30 rushing yards in the second half. McClellan is the guy that's had more success out of any of the running backs. A lot of it is that the offensive line is not opening the holes for them and doing the things that they need to do in order for Alabama to have a successful running game.
DS: Jermaine Burton, you've mentioned him. Nearly 200 yards last week. Is that the receiver that they've been looking for to take advantage of Milroe's strengths as best they can? KW: I would think Alabama this week is going to try and get back to establishing the run game a little more since they basically had to turn away from it last week. You're also at home where the offensive line is not having to deal with crowd noise. I'm going to be interested to see if Roberts is back at right guard or if Darrian Dalcourt returns from whatever injury has been nagging him.
DS: Dallas Turner has been really effective with nine tackles for loss. Arkansas gave up 15 tackles for loss, which is their most in 20+ years against A&M. They had six or seven more against Ole Miss. What impact does he have?
