Alabama practiced Wednesday afternoon, working inside on a rainy day in Tuscaloosa.
Here are some notes from the media viewing period:
-- Backup offensive lineman Scott Lashley wasn't present during the open portion of practice. With him out, Chris Owens was at left tackle and Richie Petitbon was at right tackle with the second-team offensive line. Freshman Emil Ekiyor was the second-team center.
-- The first-team dime secondary consisted of Saivion Smith and Patrick Surtain at cornerback, Trevon Diggs at nickel back, Xavier McKinney at dime back and Deionte Thompson and Shyheim Carter at safety. The second-team secondary had Josh Jobe and Nigel Knott at cornerback, Kyriq McDonald and Jared Mayden at the two inside spots and then Daniel Wright and Keaton Anderson at safety.
