Alabama offensive lineman Alphonse Taylor was suspended for the Tide's season-opening game against USC Saturday, Alabama coach Nick Saban announced following the game.

It was a one-game suspension.

Taylor will be available to play next week when the Tide hosts Western Kentucky, Saban said.

The suspension stems from Taylor's July arrest.

Taylor was arrested and charged with driving under the influence and leaving the scene of an accident, though he was not guilty of driving under the influence on Tuesday.
