MONTGOMERY, Alabama  --  The Alabama State offense struggled through many of the 15 spring practices, but the recent Black and Gold Game isn't indicative of what fans will see this fall, head coach Reggie Barlow and his players insisted.

Clearly, the loss of starting quarterback Daniel Duhart was a big blow for the spring game. Backup Quinteris Toppings struggled with the passing game, but that should be expected from a guy who was thrust into action in one game last season because of injuries.
