Alabama sophomore offensive lineman Michael Carroll was named to the Outland Trophy Preseason Watchlist on Tuesday morning, as announced by the Football Writers Association of America. This season, he is expected to move to right guard for the Crimson Tide as Alabama looks to bolster its offensive line after a 2025 season that did not hold up to the Alabama standard. The Outland Trophy will be presented on ESPN's College Football Awards Show in December.
