"We're going to use a rotation there," Orgeron said on the weekly SEC coaches teleconference. "I asked him yesterday how he felt, what condition he was. He felt that he was fine.

"Obviously we're going to give him the football, let him do what he needs to do. He looks like he's full speed from the first two practices but we are going to monitor him a little bit to make sure he's OK. He's going to tell me that during the game, when he needs a break, when he doesn't need a break. We plan on using all three backs."
