LSU expected to be without Whit Weeks against Alabama, sources tell CBS Sports

LSU is expected to be without star linebacker Whit Weeks against Alabama on Saturday as he continues to work back from a late September leg injury, sources tell CBS Sports' Matt Zenitz. Weeks was listed as doubtful on LSU's initial SEC availability report after three prior reports listed him out, an upgrade that left a path to play. Sources now say he is not ready to return for the Alabama matchup, per Zenitz via WBRZ. Weeks fractured his fibula during LSU's win over Texas A&M on Sept. 26. Saturday would be his fifth missed game this season. No. 14 LSU hosts No. 5 Alabama on Saturday at 2:30 PM CT on ABC.
