The Alabama Crimson Tide are preparing to play for the College Football Playoff title on Monday night against Ohio State.
However, there are still a few players who are dealing with injuries and are uncertain for the big game.
During a press conference on Sunday morning, Alabama coach Nick Saban provided the latest on a trio of key players. First, regarding star WR Jaylen Waddle, Saban said he’s back at practice and will be a game-time decision:
Nick Saban on Jaylen Waddle: “I think the biggest challenge is can he sustain in a game and it will be a game-time decision as to whether he thinks he can play and go out there and do his job well enough to contribute to the team."

Defensively, he said DL LaBryan Ray is more likely to play than DB Malachi Moore. He said Moore is very questionable for the big game:
Nick Saban says Malachi Moore is “probably still very questionable” for tomorrow’s game. LaBryan Ray is “more probable,” has been able to practice and Saban said they hope they can get “some contribution” from him.

All 3 of those guys are key players for the Tide. How many of them will play significant snaps? We’ll find out starting tomorrow night.
