Do we have some unannounced injuries or something? The ones that stand out as not playing are Seither and Blaylock because both have been high producers thus far. Any word on where they were?
 
Seither played. Don't see Blaylock as having participated. Blaylock could be injured or we just liked the matchups we were getting with who we had out there. We have really good depth now at the WR positions. Haynes has worked out so well at RB I'd almost like to see if we have one more to swing that way. McCollum leaving wasn't as big of an impact as we feared.
 
Cooley looked either timid or injured. I’ll suppose he has some kind of minor injury as he doesn’t seem the timid type.
 
Also, limited the CB rotation or someone is hurt there.

We do seem so be banged up at a lot of spots.
 
was there a two deep roster released last week???
the only one ive seen posted was for week two.
 
I know coaches want any advantage they can find, but it's already hard enough to keep track of our roster with transfers and now it's a guessing game on injuries.

Didn't play Saturday:
DL - Yondjouen - out for season
RB - Smith - didn't dress for Ole Miss allegedly, did dress Saturday but didn't play... allegedly
WR - Blaylock - haven't heard any news on him
WR - Lane(?) - haven't heard any news on him
DB - Watson(?) - didn't he leave a game earlier this year? Odd he didn't get in this game with how Sims was playing but Rodney Shelley was in for 3 snaps
DB - Harvey(?) - listed as the starter still, but Johnson played every defensive snap

Injured/limited snaps in game:
OL - Williams - he's gone down in every game this year and IIRC this is the second time he hasn't gone back in
DB - Brooks(?) - I don't remember him going down, but PFF says he only played 16 snaps. Did anyone notice this? Was it just a substitute for CPL?
RB - Cooley - obviously not playing at 100%
TE - Seither(?) - only credited with 8 plays, but I don't remember them, strange that he's been listed third on the depth chart all season so this might be just a lack of PT
DL - Kennard - seemed to just be cramping

Smith didn't play. I assume banged up a little but he dressed so likely could have been used in emergency.
Blaylock didn't play. Same as above, I assume he's banged up because he would have at least been fielding punts if not in WR rotation.
Lane - Key said he was travelling and dressing for this game but would be for emergency only. I hope we won't need him against BG this week and let him get healed up better for Miami.
Watson I don't believe got in against Ole Miss either. I don't know if he's fighting injury also or has just been passed on depth. He did have a couple PI's called on him early this season, maybe he's fallen down the chart, but I'd rather see some PI's being aggressive sometimes rather than just letting long completions be made.
Harvey I think is also banged up but could have played if needed.

Williams has just been snake-bit this year. He was a little bit limited in camp due to injury, and injured his shoulder against UL in the 1st half. I'm not sure if that's what his pre-season injury was also but some reason I seem to recall it being that. Two weeks ago at Ole Miss and this past week at Wake he's been rolled up under from behind and seemed to suffer a lower leg/knee injury. I believe he came back in at Ole Miss, but Saturday he looked to be in a lot of pain and could barely put weight on the leg. We looked fine without him in there but we're getting to the end of decent depth at OL. We can't afford to lose anybody else and hopefully Williams will make it back.
Brooks has been playing hurt since UL game and I think the coaches are finally letting other guys play in that spot more. He's a team leader and one of the best on defense but if he's only at 60-70% I think we have guys that can be better than that.
Cooley was also injured during fall camp and missed some time. I don't believe he's been 100% yet but we've seen some flashes out of him so maybe he continues to improve.
Seither also has been battling injury since camp. He's probably played the least of all the TEs but he's just benefited from being in at the right time when some of the play calls have been made to the TE.
Kennard yes I don't believe he's been really injured, just cramps and bumps here and there.
 
Lane got hurt and I think he might be out a while. Didn't play against Ole Miss, either.
Blaylock had a history of injuries at Georgia too.
Watson is listed as playing Saturday against Wake. Maybe he got in on special teams?
Noticed too Dontae wasn't dressed for Ole Miss. If he was dressed for Wake, he did not get in. No mention of him on participation chart that I saw.

Watson just doesn't seem to be a smart/skilled CB.Just doesn't seem to make good plays.
 
So……is Dontae still injured? I don’t recall seeing him at Miami and I thought he would be back by now.

I believe he is. He's supposedly practicing with full contact but I guess he's not completely ready because I imagine we would have given him a shot against Miami as inept as our run game was the 1st half. Or maybe that's why he didn't. If we weren't run blocking well at all, why risk letting him get mauled when trying to overcome an injury? I suspect he'll be full go after the bye week, so if he doesn't play against BC, something else must be up.

Insofar as I can tell (and I’m far from an insider) he’s not even getting mentioned during injury reports like Lane and others are.

Key mentioned him last week and said he was coming off an injury, getting back healthy and we should see him against Miami. We didn't so either he had a setback, they didn't want to risk anything with wet field conditions and our poor run blocking, or something else.
 
I think he cussed out keys mom or something. I still think he is the most talented running back we have but he isn't seeing the field. Key said he was ready but zero carries last two games. Only noticed him on the field for two plays against BG but he did have a reception for 15 or so. Seems like he didn't play much once key took over last year so I'm wondering if he pissed key off or if that is when he got hurt. Either way I think we need him on the field. Haynes has been good, Cooley seems to be playing timid or maybe also hurt but I think Smith is better than both if healthy.

We need all three going forward so we can open up the playbook. It's going to be hard to win if we can't establish some sort of run game

He played extensively against UGA last year and very well.
