Alabama's win over Georgia came at an unfortunate cost: junior Wolf LB Qua Russaw suffered a broken foot in the first quarter on Saturday night, knocking him out of the rest of the game. Russaw has since undergone surgery, and will be out for a while. Kalen DeBoer said it isn't season-ending, but there's not yet a timetable for his return.

The loss of Russaw was compounded by a practice injury during the week of Jah-Marien Latham, who will miss the rest of the season with a neck injury.
