Alabama practiced Wednesday afternoon, its final full practice before Saturday's home opener against Fresno State.
Here are some notes from the media viewing period:
-- Starting defensive lineman Da'Shawn Hand was going through drills with the outside linebackers. Hand was third in line for drills behind Jamey Mosley and Mekhi Brown. Inside linebacker Josh McMIllon was also working with the outside linebackers. So was defensive lineman LaBryan Ray for a third straight day.
-- With Hand working with the outside linebackers, the first-team defensive line during drills was Da'Ron Payne at nose tackle and Josh Frazier and Raekwon Davis at defensive end.
