The SEC released Thursday’s availability report for this Saturday’s conference matchups. It will be updated a final time Friday evening. Here’s a look at the report submitted by each team:

Kentucky at Georgia

Kentucky

OUT:

RB #10 Jamarion Wilcox

DB #21 Nasir Addison

DB #24 Jaden Smith

DL #55 Nic Smith

WR #82 David Washington Jr.

TE #85 Elijah Brown

WR #89 Preston Bowman

QUESTIONABLE:

DB #5 DJ Waller Jr.

ILB #32 Devin Smith

PROBABLE:

QB #5 Zach Calzada

OL #53 Aba Selm

Georgia

OUT:

TE #9 Ethan Barbour

WR #11 Talyn Taylor

OL #51 Malachi Toliver

OL #71 Earnest Greene III

WR #88 Thomas Blackshear

The new addition to this list is former five-star Georgia WR Talyn Taylor, but the biggest storyline continues to be Kentucky QB Zach Calzada after redshirt freshman Cutter Boley struggled as the Wildcats’ starter in Week 5.

Vanderbilt at Alabama

Vanderbilt

OUT:

CB #0 Marlon Jones

RB #13 Chase Gillespie

S #39 Brail Lipford

LB #40 Jamison Curtis

DOUBTFUL:

DL #5 Yilanan Ouattara

QUESTIONABLE:

CB #17 Mark Davis

Alabama

OUT:

LB #4 Qua Russaw

LB #20 Jah-Marien Latham

DL #92 Jeremiah Beaman

OUT – 1ST HALF:

DL #23 James Smith

No changes here, but it is worth noting that all of the relatively healthy Crimson Tide’s injuries come on the front seven. It will be worth paying attention to how Alabama’s defense stands up to a Vanderbilt offense that leads the nation in offensive touchdowns, especially with DL James Smith serving a first-half targeting suspension.

Texas at Florida

Texas

DOUBTFUL:

RB #4 CJ Baxter

QUESTIONABLE:

DB #5 Malik Muhammad

PROBABLE:

WR #3 Emmett Mosley V

RB #5 Quintrevion Wisner

DB #6 Kobe Black

DB #17 Xavier Filsaime

Florida

OUT:

RB #5 Treyaun Webb

EDG #11 LJ McCray

DB #13 Aaron Gates

RB #24 Ja’Kobi Jackson

DB #27 Dijon Johnson

DL #88 Caleb Banks

DL #97 Joseph Mbatchou

The Longhorns were hit with a dose of good news and bad news on Thursday’s report. The good: Mosley is trending toward making his Texas debut, while Wisner and Black were also upgraded from questionable to probable. The bad: starting DB Malik Muhammad dropped to doubtful after an initial listing of questionable.

For the Gators, the addition of Mbatchou could be a significant hit, as the freshman started seeing in increased role on an already banged up Florida defensive line.

Mississippi State at Texas A&M

Mississippi State

OUT:

DL #43 Will Whitson

OL #54 Blake Steen

DOUBTFUL:

OL #76 Albert Reese IV

QUESTIONABLE:

S #2 Isaac Smith

Texas A&M

QUESTIONABLE:

LB #0 Scooby Williams

S #1 Bryce Anderson

OL #52 Blake Ivy

Mississippi State removed two names from Wednesday’s injury report, including starting receiver Brenen Thompson, who leads the Bulldogs with 324 receiving yards on 20 grabs.
