SEC Championship injury updates: Alabama vs. Georgia Thursday availability report revealed
There’s one final game to be played this season within the Southeastern Conference, with the SEC Championship kicking off in Atlanta on Saturday. Now, two days out from the top-ten matchup, we have a better idea of who’ll be taking the field for Alabama vs. Georgia.
With this game, we have our final updates made to the SEC Availability Report. An initial one was already released on Wednesday, with another one to come on Friday, for the Crimson Tide and the Bulldogs.
Kickoff is set for Saturday at 4 p.m. ET. Here is that updated injury report from the SEC for Alabama as well as Georgia:

On Wednesday, Alabama had the more notable of the two reports to start, with eleven designations in total and four of those still undetermined for the Crimson Tide. The most important of those were obviously with questionable designations on their offense for Miller, their leading rusher with 493 yards and three touchdowns, and Cuevas, their top tight end with 341 yards and four touchdowns, and on their offensive line with Dewberry. Other names like Riley, their second-leading rusher, as well as Overton and Kirkpatrick Jr. were then already labeled as out for ‘Bama.
Georgia then had six designations, with all of them already labeled as out for the SEC Championship. Young, their second-leading receiver on the season, Jones and Hall on their defense, and Bobo on their offensive line were the most notable of the six already to be unavailable for the ‘Dawgs this weekend when they’ll be back inside Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

ATHENS, Ga. – Designated hitter Daniel Jackson and centerfielder Rylan Lujo combined for nine RBI Sunday, leading fifth-ranked Georgia to a 12-1 win over LSU at Foley Field.
Georgia improved to 41-11 overall, 21-6 in the SEC, while LSU dropped to 29-24 overall and 9-18 in conference play.
The Tigers return to action at 6:30 p.m. CT Thursday when they play host to Florida in Game 1 of a three-game SEC series in Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field. Thursday’s game will be broadcast on the LSU Sports Radio Network and streamed on SEC Network +.
“Georgia won the moments in this series,” said LSU coach Jay Johnson. “They’re going to score, so you’ve got to capitalize against them when you have scoring opportunities on offense.”
Georgia starting pitcher Caden Aoki (8-0) was the winner, limiting LSU to one run on four hits in 5.0 innings with two walks and seven strikeouts.
LSU right-hander Casan Evans (2-3), making his first appearance since April 17 versus Texas A&M, started the game Sunday and was charged with the loss, working 1.2 innings and allowing four runs on four hits with two walks and three strikeouts.
“I thought Casan’s stuff looked great, and that’s good for him from a health standpoint,” Johnson said. “He’s a guy that the more he pitches, the better he is, so there might have been a little bit of rust, but I thought he competed fine.”
Georgia struck for four runs in the bottom of the second inning in an outburst highlighted by Jackson’s two-out, two-run single and an RBI single by second baseman Ryan Black.
The Tigers narrowed the gap to 4-1 in the third when designated hitter Omar Serna Jr. delivered an RBI single.
Georgia extended its lead to 7-1 in the fourth as Jackson launched a two-run homer and centerfielder Lujo lined a run-scoring single.
Lujo unloaded a grand slam in the fifth, giving the Bulldogs an 11-1 advantage.
