You can imagine the excuses Nick Saban has heard before about not coming to practice, but on Tuesday, there was one he likely had no problem accepting.

Alabama wide receiver Cam Sims missed practice due to the birth of his daughter, Kameryn Faye Sims.

Alabama is gearing up to face the Ole Miss Rebels in Tuscaloosa Saturday, and I’m sure Sims will be playing with a bigger smile than last Saturday.
