🏈 Dylan Moses with an ACL injury--out indefinitely

[UAgrad93]

How does this happen in a practice? Can Saban not learn to limit contact so the same shit doesn't happen every year?

Could have easily happened during team work and some linemen got their feet tangled up and went down into his knee. You try to keep everyone on their feet but it still happens.

The story I would like to see unfold, is Ben Davis picking up the torch and push Lee for the spot,

He's been playing outside.

Devastating. Citrus Bowl here we come. This is akin to losing Tua and Mac Jones. Just completely tanks the most critical part of that side of the ball.

Citrus Bowl? I don't know about all that. 2017 was horrific in terms of injuries, namely LB's but...if I recall correctly, we still did okay that year

I've heard it was non-contact. I haven't tried to confirm that...too much on my plate this morning and I'm continually ignoring it.

I’m not sure we beat an improved A&M squad on the road early in the year. I could see Gus also giving our LBers fits so the AU game could be another loss. Plus, we can’t count out other defensive injuries that will occur throughout the season.

ACL injuries happen in non contact situations all the time.


I love all the doom and gloom. Other teams will have injuries as well

Oh, yes, I had forgotten that the barn has the 12th coming of Cam under center this season. We doomed

[PurlJam]

Well .

 

[EasyTider]

Mack Wilson decision seemingly less and less ignorant as each day passes.

 

[JoshB]

Do you want to see tackling, or the lack thereof, like we saw in the Florida vs Miami game?


@BamaBoyJosh Here's your boy. I didn't think he was banned.

Damn it!

 

[TerryP]

Damn it!

LIke I said, he won't be in this weeks game thread. I've already closed that off for his account.

 

[bama alum]

hey Pete stop doing that particular drill.

YES!

Anyone think we slide Ben Davis back inside. I realize it’s taken 4 years to crack the 2-deep at OLB. I’m guessing there is less to grasp playing outside vs inside?

Welp, we got 5 tuneups to try and figure it out. Other than Tua, couldn’t be a bigger loss anywhere.

I think ILB still has 5 elite players in Harris, Lee, Moody, Benton, and Kaho. None are Moses, but they aren't going to be counting on walkons anytime soon

How does Clemson's LB situation compare?

You're right of course, but damnit this is getting old.

At least the schedule sets up well. These guys will gain a lot of valuable experience by crunch time.

You're exactly right. It's the right thing for fans to look at as well.

It's the only way fans can look at it right now.

Personally, I was looking forward to having two inside 'backers from Baton Rouge when the Tide takes on LSU.

I think this is definitely and option, I mean Bens been in the process now for what 4 years, I would like to see him get a shot with rotation with Lee/Moody, I like a good comeback story

 

[Justneedme81]

Ben is OLB. He will not be ILB unless bad situation occurs. But we need to let that idea go for now. That is not happening with who we have on ILB rotations.
