It was expected to be another stress-free weekend for Alabama fans. The Crimson Tide hosted Tennessee, and the No. 1 team in the country was poised to win handily, which was exactly what it did.
However, it did so mostly without star quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.
Tagovailoa suffered a high ankle sprain in Alabama's 35-13 win on Saturday, and that could affect the Tide moving forward. It's expected that Tagovailoa won't play next weekend when Alabama hosts Arkansas in its final game before its bye week.
But that could give Tagovailoa enough time to rest to be back when Alabama faces No.
