After missing Auburn’s final two regular-season games, it appears Sean White will be back for the Sugar Bowl as coach Gus Malzahn had a positive update when speaking to the media following practice.
Malzahn said QB Sean White was full-go at practice and "looked like he was 100 percent."

White last played on Nov. 12 in Auburn’s 13-7 loss at Georgia. The quarterback admitted after the game that he was not forthcoming about aggravating his shoulder injury and the amount of discomfort he was dealing with during the game. The Tigers turned to Jeremy Johnson against Alabama A&M on Nov. 19 and in the Nov. 26 season finale at Alabama.
The redshirt sophomore appeared in 10 games this season, going 129-of-198 passing for 1,644 yards, 9 touchdowns and 3 interceptions. White and the Tigers face Oklahoma in the Sugar Bowl Jan. 2 at 7:30 p.m. CT on ESPN.
