Saban talks Bama injuries.

The 2 offensive linemen that have been nicked up are also the 2 with the most competition at their positions. Darrin Dalcourt is the next best thing at the center spot and was always in the mix to get a lot of snaps this season. Along with freshman sensation J.C. Latham, who has been outstanding taking Randolph's spot. I do believe both of these guys will see a lot of snaps vs Miami.
 
Kind of a weird situation here. Latham is going to be insanely good, but I'd almost always say give me a true freshman over the redshirt senior if I'm playing against them.

However, Randolph has played Tight End for some of his career, and although this is year 5 for him, he played zero snaps his first 2 years and had zero starts in his next two. And some of the snaps he did play the past 2 seasons were as a Tight End. So I'm really not sure which one I'd rather see out there. Latham is young but he was at IMG so he's been in a "college" weight program for a couple years, plus enrolled in January. I guess at the end of the day, give me the less experienced kid, even if he's possibly a better player now and certainly has an infinitely higher ceiling.
