Per Coach Nick Saban

Maybe the Jalen Hurts Cinderella story continues.

Sure wouldn't be as worried if Bama drew ND in round 1.

frick you Clemson.

He has plenty of time to get well.

Should be good to go depending on the damage his dad did to him last night.

A high ankle sprain can be worse than a break, so it really depends on what was damaged in the sprain.

Hurts looked like Joe fricking Namath out there last night though. I wouldn’t be too concerned.

If I’m Saban I’m playing Hurts over a semi-hobbled Tua.

Coach said Doc Andrews will scope it so it can heal better, Coach said he’ll be Aight.

I actually think "Hurts Ball" wouldn't be that bad of a gameplan vs oklahoma, but a healthy Tua vs that secondary...

Is Tua Mr Glass or just unlucky?

we'll see how it goes.

LUCKILY, for the first tie all season. We have some time to get well. I know the guys are off for a few days and will have a small break at Christmas but we've got 4 weeks.

Even then, I like my chances with Saban having 4 weeks to scheme and plan. He will have a plan for
Tua being 100 percent
Tua being 75 percent
Tua being 100 percent but getting hurt early
Tua being 100 percent but getting hurt late in game
Jalen being the starter
Jalen struggling

He won't miss a thing

Defensively. He's got more issues there.

Hurts will have 300 yards passing and 200 yards rushing vs OU. Not even worried a little. :p

I'm not sure I believe Tua is hurt at all. At this point, I think Saban's just trolling us all. He's gotten so bored with winning national titles that he's resorting to mixing things up. Why did Hurts stay? Saban told him that he was going to have Tua fake an ankle injury late in the season so Hurts could be the hero this season.

Saban just wants a challenge. Something to recapture the excitement of those first few titles, to make him feel alive again. Is that so wrong?

His foot was stepped on by one of his lineman and it was stretched.
Bad luck.

You don't say. Though that's not exactly how it happened. It might even be possible that I was clearly being facetious. What are the odds of two things being that clear?
