Alabama's Week 1 Depth Chart Comes Into Focus After Final Fall Scrimmage

Alabama's Week 1 depth chart is taking shape after the final fall scrimmage: Keelon Russell looks like the starting quarterback over Austin Mack, Daniel Hill is the presumed starter at running back with a rotation possible for Riley and Trae'shawn Brown, and the WR/TE/OL groups are starting to lock in roles with Noah Rogers sidelined by injury. Kaleb Edwards and Josh Ford project as the top tight ends, the five-man offensive line is nearing consensus, Kedrick Bingley-Jones appears at DT over London Simmons, Luke Metz is the new Sting linebacker, and Alabama's depth at defensive back and on special teams should see multiple players contributing early. AK Dear's injury could limit his early-season impact, and WR depth remains a question with ongoing health considerations.

Tar Heels Rally to 9-3 Win Over ECU, Advance to NCAA Super Regionals

North Carolina baseball defeated East Carolina 9-3 in the Chapel Hill Regional final to advance to the NCAA Super Regionals. The Tar Heels leaned on timely hitting, strong pitching, and a bullpen sequence that included Folger Boaz, Walker McDuffie, and Jackson Rose to preserve an 8-1 lead. ECU starter Ryan Towers exited early and UNC stretched the advantage, while UNC’s bench—Carter French and Rom Kellis V—also contributed. UNC now awaits the winner of the Texas A&M College Station regional for a super-regional series; the Tar Heels are 41-8 in Chapel Hill regional play, and UCLA’s upset of top seeds is part of a shifting postseason landscape.
