BATON ROUGE, LA (NBC33) - — After the 45-10 win over Auburn, LSU head coach Les Miles said he knew if the three suspended players would play against Alabama on November 5th. The only problem, he didn’t want to share that information with the media.

Three sophomores; Spencer Ware, Tyrann Mathieu and Tharold Simon all missed Saturday’s game after reportedly testing positive for synthetic marijuana.

A source close to the LSU program tells NBC33 the suspended players will be back by the Alabama game. LSU is currently on a bye week.
