Well with that rationale LSU should fake an injury to Burrow and let him sit out the Bama game so LSU will automatically make the playoffs since they lost bc Burrow was "Hurt".

Because saban doesn’t give a hoot about the players (ask any Miami Dolphin), only his own sorry azz. If I were Tua’s dad, I would say no way. Why risk the health of a first round pick.

He does not want to play. See Nick Bosa for further info.

Saban is going to play whichever QB gives him the best chance to win this game. That is the only thing he’s considering. No more. No less.

On the other hand, Tua is likely not going to be healthy enough to play, and will not play if he’s not.

It’s really that simple.

Another dumb arse. So you would just throw away all the potential endorsement money that a Heisman trophy garners? Everybody knows the likely winner of this game is the Heisman winner. If Tua is healthy, he is playing. Some of idiots need to stop posting.

Maybe, but with their weak schedule, there's no guarantee. E.g. Would Bama get in over a 1-loss Ohio State if PSU were to beat them and win the Big10?

You all are really bored for even entertaining the thought that Saban is going to ever concede a loss. He is dysfunctionally competitive.

If Tua doesn't play, it's because he's physically unable to play to the standard required of him.
