Andre Smith


Alright, alot of you might not of heard about this but I heard about it earlier this morning and now it seems to be making headlines on ESPN. Today Coach Saban suspended left tackle, Andre Smith, for the Sugar Bowl. Sources are now saying that this had something to do with improper contact with a sports' agent. Evedently this was big enough to suspended him for probably the last game of his career at Alabama.

Smith is an Outland trophy winner and a 1st team All-American so the real question is, "Will this hurt Alabama in the Sugar Bowl?" I really don't think it will because honestly Mike Johnson, who is the another starting linemen, is going to play right tackle and David Ross will play left guard. With all the running we are going to do I really don't think this will have a HUGE impact on our offense. If we go with more passing I might say yes but Alabama will be too successful smashing Utah in the mouth to even worry about throwing the ball.

Anyway, that's a Bama update for you and by the way...I will be at the Sugar Bowl to watch this Utah massacre. Roll Tide!
