That's a sort of status, but at least I now know exactly which players are in doubt.

It could be that Sumlin held some or even all of them out as a precaution. I guess we will find out soon enough if they are back for our game.

Yeah happens every year accept to bama ;) We've had our share again this year. Anybody know what LBs have played besides Jumper & McDowell? I think I saw the other day where Bates & bryant have one tackle each. Lawd. I'm sure those are special teams. I do not EVER recall UT not having some freaking depth at LB. Unreal, really. Without question that position is our achilles heel.

I heard all A&M players with ankle/lower leg injuries did not fly because of possible swelling from long plane ride and to remain at training facilities for treatment. No word on how bad they are or if they can play or not. But if your strength is speed, a foot or ankle injury can keep you from your best. Sumlin must have thought A&M could win without them so he left them at haome rather than play against the Gamecocks. But who really knows. We will see Saturday afternoon.

Dylan Bates played a lot against Florida.  Also Bynum and another guy I can't recall the name of.  Not sure what happened against uga, as it was almost all Jumper and McDowell.
