Ahead of Auburn's annual game with Georgia on Saturday, Malzahn announced that quarterback Sean White would be healthy enough to start, and that running back Kamryn Pettway hasn't been ruled out for the game.

'We're not ruling out Pettway yet. We wouldn't be surprised if he plays," says Auburn's Gus Malzahn of SEC's leading rusher

Pettway potentially injured a hamstring in the fourth quarter against Vanderbilt, as the star rusher pulled up on what should have been a breakaway touchdown. Pettway became the first Auburn player to rush for 150+ yards in four consecutive games since Bo Jackson on Saturday, so it is safe to say that the bruising back is critical to the Tigers and their success.
