The reserve inside linebacker, Mack Wilson, replaced Hamilton in that game, but also went down with a foot injury. He will be out 4-6 weeks.
With the linebacker spot already bare after Terrell Lewis and Christian Miller both went down in week 1, look for freshman Dylan Moses to take over a decent amount of snaps along with veteran Keith Holcombe.
Star DB Minkah Fitzpatrick was also among the injured members of the Tide, but his hamstring pull has not been deemed serious and should return to practice on Tuesday
#2 Alabama takes on #16 Mississippi State this weekend.
