Alabama faces its toughest test of the year on Saturday night, heading into Death Valley to take on a strong LSU squad.
Star QB Tua Tagovailoa has been dealing with a bit of a knee issue, but on Monday, he said he’s feeling much better.
As you can see in the video below, shared by Alabama Football on YouTube, Tagovailoa even jokes about trying to give away his knee brace:
“I’m 100-percent on my knee. I feel 100-percent on my knee,” Tagovailoa said. “A lot of the guys on our team, I ask them if they need a knee brace, because I don’t need it. But these guys want to keep me safe, so I’ve got to use a knee brace.”
It sounds like Tagovailoa is ready to go, so we’ll see if he uses the brace or not at Tiger Stadium on Saturday night.
