Alabama’s offensive line will feature a new player at right guard when the Crimson Tide take on Mississippi State on Saturday.
Korren Kirven, who started once at right tackle last year, will get the nod at right guard against the Bulldogs:

Kirven is in the starting lineup with Alphonse Taylor still out. Lester Cotton, who had been starting in place of Taylor, was limited in practice this week, so Kirven got the first-team reps.
Kirven, a converted defensive lineman, is a senior this year.
