CARSON, Calif. — It's almost showtime in Hollywood.

The Alabama Crimson Tide went through the final practice ahead of its Rose Bowl matchup with No. 1 Michigan on Monday in Pasadena.

The Crimson Tide continues to practice at Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson.

Practice Notes

  • Arkansas State head coach Butch Jones was in attendance for Alabama's Saturday practice. He was on Nick Saban's staff as an offensive analyst from 2018-2019.
  • Multiple coaches were heard yelling, "last guaranteed practice," emphasizing with the guys that if they don’t give it their all and beat Michigan, this may be their last practice of the year.
  • In short viewing, defensive tackle Jaheim Oatis appeared limited, not running with the rest of the guys during warmups. He had a brace on his right knee.
  • Former Alabama players Miller Forristall and Tommy Brown attended.

The Crimson Tide will have its final walkthrough on Sunday before Monday's game against the Wolverines. Saban and Jim Harbaugh will meet with the media one final time on Sunday morning ahead of the game.
