Alabama fans received quite a scare early Tuesday morning when “reports” began to surface that Crimson Tide starting center, Charles Bediako had suffered an injury.
Foruntelely for Bediako and the Alabama faithful, the injury is not near as severe as initially thought.
“He did have a minor knee injury in the Auburn game,” Alabama head coach [autotag]Nate Oats[/autotag] said Tuesday. “He played through it. He’s day-to-day. He’s gotten better every day since the Auburn game. We’ll see where he’s at tomorrow on game day, but it is a knee injury. It’s a minor one. It’s day-to-day right now.”
Bediako has played in and started, all 25 games this season for the Tide. The 7-foot Canadian was averaging 5.6 points and 5.3 rebounds per game while playing an average of 20.4 minutes per contest.
Roll Tide Wire will continue to monitor Bediako’s injury status and will provide an update as soon as any are available.
