Kentucky vs. Florida: Initial Availability Report

Kentucky has not won an SEC home game since Florida’s last trip to Lexington. This time, the Gators are traveling north in November with an interim head coach. Now we have a better idea of how each roster will look for the Saturday night 7:30 PM ET kickoff on the SEC Network.

Each Wednesday of SEC contests, both schools will share an availability report. It will be updated nightly, with one final ruling an hour before kickoff on Saturdays. Players must be listed as out (0% chance to play), doubtful (25% chance to play), questionable (50% chance to play), or probable (75% chance to play).

Now that we’ve entered the month of November, the list of players out is growing and growing, especially for the Florida wide receiver room.

There’s some good news and some bad news in the Kentucky secondary. Terhyon Nichols remains out, but DJ Waller might have a shot at returning to the field after suffering a hamstring injury in week one. Wide receiver Ja’Mori Maclin appears to be on track to play after missing the Auburn game.

We learned earlier this week that Florida’s freshman phenom at wide receiver, Dallas Wilson, will be out for the rest of the year. The Gators don’t beat Texas without his outstanding performance. The same could be said about Eugene “Trey” Wilson’s game against Georgia. He had nine catches for 121 yards and a touchdown in the heartbreaking rivalry loss. Now the Gators have lost this explosive playmaker for the road trip to Kentucky. Florida also could be without their leading receiver, freshman Vernell Brown. We’ll be monitoring the situation closely.
