TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- His name rarely gets called over the public address system and the only time he touches the football, it's to quickly give it to someone else. But there he is, the heart of the Alabama offense, the glue holding everything together.

But there’s another candidate you ought to consider, one that doesn’t live in a world of individual stats -- center Ryan Kelly.
