SECMD23 Notebook: Wednesday takeaways from the Tide, Hogs, Gators & 'Cats

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — On paper, Alabama’s football team appears more vulnerable than usual.

The Crimson Tide only return four starters on offense and five on defense from last season’s team that finished 11-2.

Among the departures are Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Bryce Young and two-time All-American linebacker Will Anderson.

Alabama had eight other players selected in the NFL Draft.
