SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is continuing treatment on his left ankle while preparing to face Clemson in the national title game, but there is no doubt within the program that he expects to play on Monday night.
"We're going to play him until the doctors tell us that he's not able to play," said offensive coordinator Mike Locksley. "We thought he had a really good week of preparation last week, and he's off to a good start to this week thus far.
