If oHio State wins this game with players out due to Covid , a QB with busted ribs , then Nick Saban should get out of coaching .This game should be a layup .And my peeps told me Waddle is still limping pretty good at practice so we ll see .

that sounds so like a middle school taunt. That said, I think the "make the opposing coach game plan" thing is way is way over rated.

Saban not going to play a guy unless they’re medically cleared to play. So the doctors think he’s “structurally sound” so to speak if he’s practicing. It is probably mental and physical condition now.
I think Tua in 2019 was pretty damn precious about trusting his body w/r/t running on scrambles when the pocket broke down. Likely because the ankle injury from the previous year and ultimately getting ran down from behind out of the pocket is what got him injured both times that year. He’s been a different kind of scrambler in his first year with the Phins. Much more decisive like before his slight knee issue mid-2018.
So for Waddle it will be about the kind of speed and cuts he can make mentally speaking. If he’s sloppy and slow out there then it might not be worth it unless they think his presence can change what Bux does on D.

I think a lot of fans, even Alabama fans, forget how mobile Tua was till the injuries started affecting his play

Saban doesn't pull shite like that. He's been medically cleared to play.

I’m not in charge of the game. Whenever the game is played and with whomever I expect OSU to bring it.
OSU beat Bama last time with a 3rd string qb and is a much more talented team top to bottom than in 14. This is the first time all year for both teams talent is pretty equal (UGA is outside of their qb). Let’s see what happens
I respect the hell out of Bama and Saban

It was reported early on, a couple days after surgery that he was a possibility if Bama made The playoffs so this isn't a surprise. My personal feel is he won't play unless it's a hundred percent go and I don't think he is. But, I didn't think drake could play in the national title game either and he was great that night.

OSU beat Bama with Zeke Elliot. Jones completed just 50% of his passes while Elliot ran for over 200 yards.

Wait, I thought Bama missing 7 starters from the LSU game last year was an excuse by Bama. Now missing players matter?

Well ya. Just like if Ohio State wins it's a normal national championship, but if Alabama wins it'll be an asterisk.

Dude is a world class athlete. He probably didn’t need as much rehab as other athletes. Freak

You could say the same thing about Justin Fields. Fortunately, for some cfb players, the postseason still matters, and they want to go out and give their all
