Georgia at Mississippi State injury updates: Friday availability report revealed

No. 5 Georgia vs. Mississippi State will be played this weekend in Starkville, with one team of Bulldogs trying to avoid the road upset while the other team of Bulldogs tries to pull one at home. With that, the final update is out for that one on the SEC Availability Report.

The Southeastern Conference provides the injury report each week for league games, with this one being among the six being played around the SEC on Saturday. An initial one drops on Wednesdays, before a pair of updates are released respectively on Thursdays and Fridays.

Here is that final update from the SEC for Georgia and for Mississippi State ahead of tomorrow’s early kickoff in Starkville:

Georgia Bulldogs

• DL Jordan Hall – OUT
• WR Colbie Young – OUT
• TE Ethan Barbour – OUT
• WR Talyn Taylor – OUT
• DB Kyron Jones – OUT
• CB Demello Jones – QUESTIONABLE

Mississippi State Bulldogs

• CB Jett Jefferson – OUT
• OL Brennan Smith – OUT
• OL Blake Steen – OUT
• DL Will Whitson – OUT
• OL Albert Reese IV – OUT
• S Jahron Manning – PROBABLE

Georgia did not make any changes in Thursday evening’s update, with five players still designated as out for the Bulldogs. However, as reported last night by On3’s Pete Nakos, Hall being out is now more significant than just for this week, as the junior on the defensive line is to be out for the season after suffering a knee injury last weekend against Florida. Jones, a contributor in their secondary with 17 tackles and three deflections, was then the only unknown at this point, with him having been labeled as questionable on the prior two updates.

Mississippi State also didn’t change any of their designations on Thursday, with five out as well for those Bulldogs. Manning, though, one of their leading defenders as their top tackler with 64 in total along with four deflections and an interception, remained probable, which would be more than welcome for their defense in trying to defend the ‘Dawgs.
