So Milroe threw 2 Int's and got sacked 7 times? Reichard had a good day, though.

Seriously what did you think of QB play and offense?

I didn't watch any of it. But saw a lot of negative regarding it online

I only saw the last 5 minutes honestly. Had family obligations. From what I saw in garbage time, QBs looked good, RB too, and made a long field goal - what negative stuff did you see/read?

College football spring game overreactions: Alabama needs help, breakout stars and more

Spring games teach us plenty about what teams will look like in the fall

ALABAMA NEEDS A SAVIOR
Alabama’s recent run on quarterbacks is a sight to behold. The Crimson Tide went from Jalen Hurts to Tua Tagovailoa to Mac Jones to Bryce Young. For those keeping count, that’s one Heisman Trophy winner, three Heisman finalists (counting their time at Alabama) and, after the 2023 NFL Draft, three-straight first-round draft picks. Most schools would kill for that level of consistency from the most important position on the field. Alabama’s spring game showed that the Tide may be due for a regression to mean — and maybe even worse.

"It's been the same way all spring,” Alabama coach Nick Saban said of his quarterbacks’ struggles following A-Day. “What we're trying to get the QBs to understand is you need to eliminate the bad plays, the plays that got you beat."

Not exactly a ringing endorsement. Neither Jalen Milroe or Ty Simpson look like sure things as the heir apparent to Young’s throne. Alabama might just need to hit the portal hard for help. The Tide already missed out on Miami’s Tyler Van Dyke, who elected to stay put after there was some serious smoke between him and Alabama. Maybe another elite option will test the waters down the road, but the QB portal looks pretty barren at the moment.

24/7 is an Auburn run site. I’d take this with a Buick sized grain of salt
 

On Tuesday afternoon, Notre Dame Fighting Irish quarterback Tyler Buchner entered the NCAA Transfer portal. And college football insider Pete Thamel seems to think there’s a chance he ultimately signs with the Alabama Crimson Tide.

“One logical landing spot for Buchner will be Alabama. Other schools that have shown interest in portal quarterbacks this spring include TCU and Stanford,” Thamel wrote for ESPN on Tuesday. “Former Notre Dame offensive coordinator Tommy Rees left the Irish for the Crimson Tide this offseason. It became increasingly clear in Alabama’s spring game on Saturday that the program lacks a clear cut starter.”

If Buchner ends up there. Bama doesn't win their division
