Alabama hoped to get close to full strength heading into Friday's College Football Playoff showdown against Oklahoma. While the prognoses look positive for guys like Jam Miller, Parker Brailsford, and even Josh Cuevas, Kalen DeBoer delivered some bad news to Tide fans during his Monday press conference.
Senior defensive end LT Overton, who missed the SEC Championship Game loss to Georgia due to an undisclosed illness, is "doubtful" to play against Oklahoma on Friday night, per DeBoer:
Kalen DeBoer on LT Overton: "Continue to monitor him. I'd say he's doubtful for this weekend."

Alabama likely to be without LT Overton for CFP at Oklahoma
It's not publicly known what issue Overton is dealing with that has caused him to be unable to play.
