I know he didn't practice yesterday but is there word on whether he'll go to Knoxville?

I don't know, but I thought this quote from Richt was funny...........

"He was supposed to be on crutches, but I looked out the window and watched him walking with his crutches over his shoulder, so I don’t know if that’s a telltale sign, but hopefully it won’t be too long.”

Willing to bet he travels and dresses but likely doesn't play.

Dude is good enough to be a threat just sitting on the sideline. I'd be pissing on myself as a DC if I knew that a switch to the 3-3-5 could prompt Gurley suddenly entering the game and tearing shite down.

Idk, but if I had to make a guess I'd say he'll travel but won't play. He damn sure doesn't need to play after that injury. But if something freaky happens and Marshall, Douglas, Green, and Harton all get hurt we may need him in an emergency.

Yes, I agree, was thinking on Monday that he should go, even if his leg is broken, just to dress out and walk into the backfield once or twice.

Who cares, let the man sit. Better now than not have him for UF. Look forward to that.

That replay of the ankle roll looked nasty, I'd be surprised if he played.

I was thinking about this yesterday...even if they know he is out for Saturday, I would have him travel and dress out...maybe even do some pre-game warm-ups if his ankle will allow it just so UT doesn't know for sure.

He shouldn't travel if they don't intend to play him. Travel rosters are limited and there is no reason for a player to take up space on it if he can't play.

Marshall, Green, and Douglas will need to get it done. We should be ok with whomever we use at TB so long as the O-line blocks as good as it did last week.

THey shouldn't need him and he shouldn't play.

So you would tell that to one of the guys that has carried this team on their shoulders AND probably wants to be on the sideline with his teammates cheering them on??? OK

He should travel, he shouldn't play. No reason to risk aggravating this injury. Unless Tennessee trots out Joe Montana, I can't see any way in hell they outscore Georgia - barring a massive Georgia brain cramp, of course.

It's a blessing in disguise.

We beat LSU with only on quarter of Gurley II......I'm pretty sure, we can handle Tennessee without him.

Sucks on one level because he's put in all the work and wants to play more than anything.........but, on another level.........a rested healthy Gurley is going to be even hungrier and all the more of a deadly weapon further down the road.
