Alabama Releases Player Availability Report for Wednesday Before LSU Game

LSU and Alabama face roster challenges with multiple key players out or doubtful, including five Alabama players and two from LSU, ahead of the Saturday game.

  • On Nov. 8, Alabama Crimson Tide and LSU Tigers are set to kick off at 6:30 p.m. CT at Bryant-Denny Stadium, with SEC availability reports showing five Alabama players and two LSU players out.
  • Disciplinary actions and injuries have reshaped both rosters, with LSU led by interim coach Frank Wilson after Brian Kelly was fired and Alabama suspending Dre Kirkpatrick Jr. since Nov. 1.
  • Lineup notes indicate LSU linebacker Whit Weeks is doubtful after missing practice and wearing a walking boot, and Wilson said `I think he's probably more doubtful at this time` while Carius Curne is probable and `Carius will have a chance`.
  • If Curne is unavailable, redshirt sophomore DJ Chester would 'probably' start at left tackle, and Alabama's sixth SEC game and fifth at home will air on ABC.
  • Looking ahead, Weeks' recovery history includes ankle surgery after the 2024 Texas Bowl, while Kalen DeBoer said Geno VanDeMark is "making good progress" and `I expect him to be ready to go`, hoping Danny Lewis Jr. will recover after the bye.
