Five things we learned from Alabama's first scrimmage

Alabama will hold practice No. 10 on Monday at the Thomas Drew Practice Fields in Tuscaloosa, Alabama and the continued mantra for Alabama continues to be, focus on all the little things. Today on the Monday Scoop, we provide intel from a few Alabama defensive leaders leading off with Defensive Tackle Da'Ron Payne.

On the level of intensity

“The intensity has been really up and we’ve been trying to perfect our craft and try to bring our intensity every play," said Payne. At 6-foot-2 and 308-pounds, Payne is one of Alabama's strongest players on the field with a bench of over 500-pounds.
