Offensive Line

Starting Left Tackle: Evan Neal

Backup: JC Latham

Starting Center: Chris Owens

Backup: Darrian Dalcourt

Starting Right Guard: Emil Ekiyor Jr

Backup: Pierce Quick

Starting Right Tackle: Javion Cohen

Backup: Kendall Randolph

Alabama had the best offensive line in the country last season, but they will need to replace 3 starters up front. Alex Leatherwood, Deonte Brown and Landon Dickerson were great players for the Crimson Tide and they might be the hardest guys to replace. I think that Alabama could do some reshuffling on the line and move Evan Neal over to left tackle after starting at right tackle last season.

Chris Owens coming back for another season was a big boost to the unit and should help it remain among the nations best, even with all of the departures. Tommy Brown and Javion Cohen will need to step up and play at a high level if the Crimson Tide hope to remain potent on offense.

Two guys to watch this season at this position will be JC Latham and Tommy Brockermeyer. They were the top ranked offensive tackles in the country and could push for playing time this season. Expect the Tide to reload on the line, even if they won’t be as historically good as they were in 2020.
