Namath Likely Out for Orange Bowl as Sloan May Shoulder Tide
Alabama stars Namath and Sloan sustain knee injuries less than a week before the Orange Bowl with Namath hobbling on crutches and Sloan a doubtful plan as Texas prepares to face the No. 1 Tide. Coach Darrell Royal notes Sloan could lead Alabama’s offense if Namath cannot play, while Texas studies its defensive stance against a strong Tide rushing defense. The Crimson Tide arrive as six point favorites, though Namath’s absence would shift Alabama’s game plan. Phil Harris remains a late-week doubt for Texas with a knee issue amid travel setbacks for the Longhorns.
