Gus Malzahn provides injury updates on Sean White, Kam Pettway

White and Pettway were both nursing injuries against Vanderbilt.

Gus Malzahn likely gave some great news to Auburn fans on Tuesday.

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.

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.
