Steve Kashul and Dr. Cole discuss potential future of Alabama Crimson Tide football player Landon Dickerson, their starting center, suffering torn knee ligaments in the SEC title game. When Landon Dickerson suffered what coach Nick Saban called a “pretty serious” knee injury a week ago, Alabama football  lost more than the center of its offensive line. In some ways, it was losing the soul of the No. 1-ranked Crimson Tide (11-0). It  was losing the gasoline that livened Alabama's  fire.
