Arenas Healthy Enough to Play?

From the article about "tape-gate" towards the bottom comes this little gem:

Alabama's team appears relatively healthy heading into Saturday's 2:30 p.m. game against Tennessee.

Cornerback Javier Arenas (ribs) "has taken all the reps and done all the work this week," said Saban, who also said Dre Kirkpatrick (back spasm), Josh Chapman (abdominal strain) and receiver Mike Bowman (knee sprain) have all practiced normally.

If he's...

…taken all the reps, then he’s ready to play. Just because he’s not Mark Ingram or Rolando McClain doesn’t mean he’s not a mutant.

I think he'll be good to go...

… again, I think what really hurt both him and Chapman last week was the cold weather. That just stiffened everything up and made it even more difficult (read painful) to move.

The bye week following Tenn couldn't be better timed...

The players seemed to be all dinged up and a liitle break will do them well.

Got that winning feelin'

Just so long as we

don’t take a bye this week

I hate the NCAA more than UT & AU combined. At least with UT & AU you got a fighting chance.

i also like the timing of florida’s schedule. they had their bye a few weeks ago and will be playing for the 9th consecutive week when dec 5th rolls around. we’ll be on week # 5.
