College football’s most closely watched ankle is “better.” So said Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa one week ahead of the No. 1 Crimson Tide’s game for the College Football Playoff championship against the No. 2 Clemson Tigers.
“After the game (Saturday against Oklahoma) it was definitely sore. I couldn’t tell if it was any better or it was the same,” Tagovailoa said this morning during a CFP teleconference for the media.
“But I guess I can say it’s better. I have treatment going on right now, as we speak, and I think we’re still going to stick with that 24-hour treatment protocol. Up until the game, I think I’m still going to be getting treatment, and I’m still going to be going through rehab and therapy, as well. But I definitely think it’s improving, you know,” said Tagovailoa, the most valuable offensive player in the Crimson Tide’s 45-34 win over the Sooners in the Capital One Orange Bowl.
