Spring practices are over, but the questions remain.

There are two questions that a lot of the SEC West teams left unanswered, and those surround the quarterback position and struggling offensive lines. Of course, they aren’t the only questions we still have — there are defensive struggles and running back deficiencies, too — but they are the most prevalent.

So here’s a look at the biggest remaining questions each SEC West team will have to ask after the 2016 spring season.

ALABAMA

Who will be the Tide’s starting quarterback in the fall?

It wouldn’t be Alabama football if the quarterback situation wasn’t in question.

Cooper Bateman may be the veteran of the four quarterbacks in the race, but newbie Jalen Hurts arguably looked the best in the spring game. Then there’s still redshirt freshman Blake Barnett and sophomore David Cornwell.

The frontrunner in this race seems to change on a daily basis, but it does look like Cornwell is trailing his competition. So will Tide head coach Nick Saban pull from previous years’ playbooks and go with the seasoned Bateman? Will he give superstar recruit Hurts a shot? Or will he meet in the middle and go with Barnett?

ARKANSAS

Will the Razorbacks have a dependable running back tandem in 2016?

The running back position at Arkansas has been riddled with injury. Senior RB Kody Walker was expected to enter fall as the starter until he broke his foot. Hogs head coach Bret Bielema expects Walker to be healthy by fall practice, but it’s not a sure thing.

Hogs RB Rawleigh Williams III suffered a horrific neck injury against Auburn last season, and spent the spring practices in the dreaded green jersey.

So who is left to fill the position? That would be incoming freshmen Devwah Whaley and T.J. Hammonds. But we won’t know much about how they’ll fit with the team until the fall semester begins.

AUBURN

Who will play quarterback for the Tigers in 2016?

Auburn spent most of 2015 bouncing between QB Sean White and QB Jeremy Johnson, never really making the sort of decision that felt final. And 2016 is beginning in much the same way, except now, QB John Franklin III is also in the race with White and Johnson — and Woody Barrett will join the fray this summer.

Each of the quarterbacks showed potential in the spring, but they also each made their share of mistakes. Franklin III has drawn the most buzz of the three due to his speed, but he’s young and needs a lot of development as a passer, and head coach Gus Malzahn still isn’t ready to make a commitment.

LSU

Can RB Leonard Fournette make a healthy return this fall?

It seems that LSU’s golden boy is spending some time in the doghouse as his weight is called into question.

“Leonard Fournette’s got to trim up,” Tigers head coach Les Miles said. “For him to get the speed he’s capable of, I think he needs to be lighter.”

Fournette had a monster 2015 season, and it included a run at the Heisman. But his performance started to drop off in the latter half of the season, and many people are questioning if he can stand up to the pressure of expectations.

Fournette’s little brother Lanard took a lot of reps in the spring game, and Derrius Guice could be one of the country’s best backups. Fournette will be a preseason Heisman Trophy candidate, but Miles is prepping other options, pending Fournette getting back into prime shape — and also for 2017 and beyond.

MISSISSIPPI STATE

Can the Bulldogs replace former QB Dak Prescott?

It will be difficult. And Mississippi State is having a hard time letting go of the former star. He even made an appearance in the spring game.

Still, it must be done. The Bulldogs must find a new leader on offense. The competition in Starkville is four quarterbacks deep: Damian Williams, Nick Fitzgerald, Elijah Staley and Nick Tiano.

Each of the four has had comparable reps and given comparable performances. And Bulldogs quarterbacks coach Brian Johnson expects the competition to continue through the summer and into the fall.

OLE MISS

Can the offensive line give QB Chad Kelly time to make big plays?

The Rebels O-line is a work in progress. Former OT Laremy Tunsil left behind a 315-pound hole to be filled. And it’s true freshman Greg Little, not an early enrollee, whose job it (probably) is to fill it.

But Tunsil isn’t the only offensive lineman who won’t be returning Oxford. The Rebels lost four other starters on the line. And all of the replacements are young talent.

Because of injuries, we didn’t get the best look at the new line this spring, but what we did see reminds us that the young guns still need work. And the experience they really need will only come with game-time reps.

TEXAS A&M

Can the Aggies build a legitimate offensive line before the season starts?

The offensive line in College Station is not just inexperienced, it is inconsistent. And the linemen are trying to learn a new system under Aggies offensive line coach Jim Turner.

Unfortunately for Texas A&M, LT Avery Gennesy is the only lineman who can be considered a veteran, starting every game in 2015. Next in line is OT Keaton Sutherland, who only got seven starts in 2015. This is a team that lost first-round NFL offensive tackles in each of the last four years.

Other than Gennesy and Sutherland, the Aggies are basically starting from scratch. And considering the challenges Texas A&M is facing at the quarterback and running back positions, a competent offensive line will be a necessity this fall.
