Ever since Alabama QB Tua Tagovailoa went down with an ankle injury against Tennessee, we’ve been hearing nonstop about his rehab.

On Saturday afternoon, we’ll finally see if Tua can play and how healthy he is if he does play.

On Saturday morning’s College GameDay, Alabama coach Nick Saban joined the crew and gave a final update on Tagovailoa’s ankle:

“Well, he practiced really well all week long, and the short area, he’s been really really good,” Saban said. “He feels good about it and confident. If he feels good in pregame and doesn’t have a setback, I think he’ll be able to play.”

It would be surprising if he didn’t play against LSU, but if he does take the field, we’ll have to see how effective he is.
