Alabama is hoping to have Taylor Bol Bowen in the lineup as it faces red-hot Texas A&M on Wednesday. Bol Bowen played just two minutes in the Crimson Tide’s loss to Florida on Sunday but hasn’t practiced after a right leg injury.
On Tuesday night, the Tide released their availability report for Wednesday’s game. Bol Bowen is showing as questionable, as you can see below:
“It’s not really a long term thing, but I don’t know if he’ll be able to play tomorrow night,” Nate Oats said, according to TideSports.com.

Bol Bowen has served as a key contributor during his first season with the Tide after starting his college career at Florida State. The junior has averaged 7.7 points and 5.4 rebounds while playing in 18 games and starting 11. He is averaging 21.1 minutes an outing.
His season high came on Nov. 8 in a win over St. John’s as he scored 17 points while adding nine rebounds. He posted his first double-double of the season against Texas on Jan. 10 with 11 points and 10 rebounds.
Alabama has lost two of its last three games and enters Wednesday in ninth place in the SEC standings (4-4). It will face an Aggies team that has won its last four games, 10 of its last 11, and is atop the conference with a 7-1 league record.
Tip-off from Tuscaloosa is set for 7 p.m. on the SEC Network.
