Should Andre Smith play against utah?
This will affect the Tide, but should not matted dramatically. The Tide offensive line, arguably the best in the nation, was held together by the top projected NFL draft pick, Andre Smith.
The Utah defense will not penetrate through Nick Saban’s masterpiece offensive line. That may seem as a biased opinion, but it is fact.
This inconvenience is not good for the Tide, but will not affect them as it would have if Alabama had lost its star lineman before they faced Florida.
Whether or not this situation will affect Andre Smith’s decision on whether to stay in college or to head for the NFL has not been revealed.
