Alabama’s Bryce Young, Will Anderson Jr. Set to Play in Sugar Bowl, per Report

After missing out on this year’s College Football Playoff, No. 5 Alabama will finish the season playing against No. 9 Kansas State in the Sugar Bowl. And, according to the latest news, the Crimson Tide expect to be at full strength for the contest.

Star quarterback Bryce Young and linebacker Will Anderson Jr. reportedly plan to play against the Wildcats following ongoing speculation surrounding their availability, ESPN’s Pete Thamel reported Friday. Young, the winner of the 2021 Heisman Trophy, and Anderson, a two-time consensus All-American, are among the list of prospects expected to be selected in the first round of the NFL draft next spring.
