no real surprises from Saban's press conference today....
Bateman has been named starter with Barnett likely to see action. Hurts is very talented but hasn't grasped the full offense enough to be a starter and with so much talent at WR and TE he wants someone to get folks lined correctly and then get it into the hands of the playmakers. Bateman is 0-1 as a starter and no other Tide QB has ever taken a snap.
OLine will be Camrob, Cotton, Bozeman, Ross, Johah so there is a small surprise with Bozeman and Ross swapping places vs what they've been doing in practice and scrimmages.
