🏈 Saban on Tua status for practice, Tennessee, etc.

[ChemE]

Tua could've gone back in game & wanted to go back. Not worth it according to Saban.

DeVonta Smith pulled a muscle. Will be day to day.

A few others nicked up but should be ok.

great news to hear

i saw Ruggs go back in for a couple plays, so i assume isn't as bad as it looked at first...?

 

[JoshB]

He's clearly full of it about Tua. There is no chance "he's just fine."

 

[bamachine]

I don't care if it hurts his chances at the Heisman, sit him next week and let Hurts beat the Vols. Give him next week and the bye to heal up for the game in Baton Rouge.

Not going to happen unless the Dr says to.

What a huge difference in this team with #13 running to show. I am glad #2 is our backup.

Keep in mind, they were killing the clock most of #2 possessions. He did have some very nice passes... much better than in years past.

Yeah right....killing the clock

Correct... Jalen was 7/8 passing. He did just fine.

We kept the ball on the ground to run clock.

That’s what worries me most about this Offense. We struggle to dominate on run regardless of #13 or #2 calling plays.

The lack of push from this OL on short yardage is surprising and, frankly, appalling. Not good headed into LSU

So you clearly didn't actually watch the game?

 

[Tidestalker]

Guarantee Ruggs will be hurting this week... And a bit slower next Saturday. The adrenaline will get a guy through the game but afterwards comes the pain. With Smith out and Ruggs banged Jeudy will get a lot of attention. Expecting Waddle to have a huge day

The Boz post today..........Quote from the Rant

Update Tua got scoped. He could play against Tennessee in a limited capacity but I’m wondering how they will play this as I have no idea.

Saw this info as well...

This is where I'm at. Since he got scoped today, I really think they gave him the option of doing it last week and he wanted to attempt to play through it. After last night, he decided to get it over with.

 

[We All Bleed Crimson]

Thankful that Jalen is able to step up and handle the team when called on to do so. The D played better than I have seen them play this year. I realize that the starters were in, it just good to know that we're able to shut teams down when we need to. High powered Mizzou offense held to 212 total yards. Our offense once again gained 500 + yards. Over all, good game where we overcame quite a bit of adversity with the injuries and all.

I would be surprised if he got it scoped on a Sunday morning, especially without any mention of MRI findings/results.

Have at it.

Tua’s Knee UPDATE

 

[JoshB]

According to Boz, Tua got "scoped" for a partially torn meniscus yet says "he could play at Tennessee" despite literally just saying in his first post its a 3-4 week recovery process (which it is). Boz said it, has to be true.

 

[bama alum]

The scope story is gaining a lot of traction this afternoon.

 

[Sgt. Lincoln Osiris]

I ain't buying Boz's bullshit. Saban himself doesn't talk specifics with injuries unless he's certain about the issue.

He stated with certainty that it was TWEAKED a little bit, the same way he TWEAKED it last week.

I think he'll get some routes-on-air work in for the first few days, nothing more, and be good to go for team work on Thursday.

Tua’s Knee UPDATE

Well who am I to question Bozworth? Sorry about that, my bad.
