So they will just plug in more 5 stars in those positions?

Yes, but these two five stars were playing for two other five stars who were injured in the Florida State game and lost for the season.

It's funny but the one position where Bama was inexperienced coming into the season was LB. Theyve now lost 4 for the year and had to pull redshirts off of a few freshmen. Very talented freshmen, but still freshmen.

Yeah, I note no.99, the DL from Meridian who I thought we were going to sign, starts for them.

Not sure why a hamstring injury doesn’t seem as bad in football as it is in soccer, where it’s usually 2-3 weeks out.

Losing Hamilton is big for them but if Fitzpatrick is out that's a really really big deal. Minkah Fitzpatrick is the engine that makes that defense go.

According to Gary Danielson, Fitzpatrick is like the QB of the defense. Losing him will probably mean they only beat us by 21 instead of 28.

Hopefully he performs as he did on the "wild tiger" play that went for 51 yards. He got absolutely mauled on that play.

Right now at the Mal Moore Athletic Center, there is an "analyst" who was supposed to have been working on his 12 step program homework who is now pouring over the list of medical hardship cast-offs to see if they are interested in playing LB.

Ha, no doubt! They've got 5-stars on campus who've been relegated to Sports Management majors. Suit em up I guess.

There are many different types of hamstring injuries. Can keep you out anywhere from a few days to a few months. No matter what sport you're playing.

**** I love the idea of true freshmen LBs against us. That legit gives us a good chance to successfully run our offense against them.

Still gotta deal with that DL. If we didn’t have our top 4 receivers out, I’d actually think we had a realistic chance.

For sure, but we have a pretty good OL ourselves. It’s the LBs responsibility to fill gaps and young LBs tend to overrun plays/get out of position and allow holes to form.
That bodes well for us.
