Sources - Missouri's Nate Noel out vs. Alabama with foot injury - ESPN

23.10.2024 - 17:53 espn.com

Missouri leading rusher Nate Noel will miss Saturday's game at No. 15 Alabama as he deals with a foot injury, sources told ESPN on Wednesday.

Noel is not expected to practice this week and will be reevaluated after No. 21 Missouri's bye week on Nov. 2. Noel, a transfer from Appalachian State, is the Tigers' most productive tailback.

He leads the team with 503 yards and an average of 5.9 yards per carry. He left last week's game against Auburn in the first half with the foot injury and was ruled unlikely to return.

He did come back and had one carry for 6 yards in the second half. He finished the game with six carries for 32 yards. The loss of Noel will put an additional onus on senior Marcus Carroll, a Georgia State transfer who has run for 321 yards and six touchdowns this year.

EYEWEAR USED TO be a kind of prison until glasses became cool. Around the time jocks who never needed prescriptions began flaunting designer frames as a declaration of style. Which was long after Eli Drinkwitz had been memorialized in pictures from his adolescence, dorked-out in big, round lenses he inherited from his older brother, Jeremy. The head football coach of the Missouri Tigers has been the victim of lousy vision his whole life, and in his early 40s now seems the kind of glasses-wearer who forsakes image in favor of comfort. His current pair being a good example: soft rectangular lenses with practically invisible frames.
