Alabama Football: Crimson Tide front seven is built to torment the SEC in 2015 | FOX Sports-via rbr

Led by budding star A'Shawn Robinson, the Tide should have the biggest and best front seven in college football this year. The 6-4, 316-pound Robinson has a great first step, awesome power and long arms and is primed for a dominant 2015, I'm told. He's got a better sense of things now that he's had two seasons in Saban's system. Scarier still is the level of talent around him. Jarran Reed's an athletic 315-pound senior while junior Dalvin Tomlinson is a 295-pound former prep wrestling champ who can be unblockable. Former top-five recruit Da'Shawn Hand, up to 275 pounds, is living up to his hype while 310-pound freshman O.J. Smith is athletic and relentless and will be a force before too long.

The quarterback position will continue to get headlines, but if this front seven is as good as advertised there will be significantly more room for error at the position. Nothing helps the secondary like stuffing the run and getting after the passer without having to blitz, either. Saban has been collecting insane talent here over the last few classes. Can't wait to see them in action.

Alabama football gets three new commitments | TuscaloosaNews.com-via via rbr

Chris Owens, three-star offensive guard from Lamar High School in Arlington, Texas, committed to Alabama on Wednesday morning. Owens (6-foot-3, 315-pounds) visited Tuscaloosa on Monday. He is recruited by Alabama assistant coaches Mel Tucker and Mario Cristobal. He has several other scholarship offers including Texas, Texas A&M, and LSU.

Owens is actually a four-star on the 247 composite and is another impressive pull from Texas who held offers from both of the flagship programs in that state plus LSU. Alabama has really made some strides in the Lone Star state recently.
