Kirby Smart leaves door open for Georgia's best weapon to play against Tennessee

This is definitely some good news.

There were reports earlier in the week that Georgia running back Nick Chubb might not play against Tennessee, but coach Kirby Smart is saying otherwise. He says that Chubb is a game-time decision and that could definitely help the Bulldogs beat a vaunted Vols defense that took down the Gators last week.

"If he's good in warmups and wants to go, we're gonna let him go," Smart said.

Smart also said that Chubb has vastly improved over the last 24 hours and that's a big reason why he is a game-time decision for the 3:30 p.m. kickoff. Chubb has run for 422 yards and three touchdowns in four games this season.
