Kirby Smart and the Georgia Bulldogs will be looking to bounce back from losing the thrilling matchup against Alabama this past weekend. It was an exciting game, but it was also a physical one.
Smart met with the media on Monday, and didn’t reveal much on the status on a few of the Bulldogs players.
Kirby Smart said he isn't sure when Roderick Robinson will be back and available for Georgia.

Roderick Robinson has missed all of the 2024 season due to a toe injury, after missing the 2023 season because of a ruptured patella tendon. There had been hope when he was first dealing with the turf toe in August that it wouldn’t be too long of an injury, but the fact he isn’t any closer to playing could be a bad sign for the Bulldogs.
He isn’t the only Georgia player dealing with an injury, but once again, Smart wasn’t definitive in his response.
Kirby Smart was very short about the status of Jordan Hall, Sacovie White and London Humphreys: "Hopeful they're all able to play."
Hall is still rehabbing a tibia stress-fracture, White is dealing with a knee injury and Humphreys is recovering from Mono.

“Hopefully they are able to play,” Smart said on Monday.
Jordan Hall has been rehabbing a tibia stress-fracture that he suffered in the game against Tennessee last season. White suffered a knee injury early in the season, and he has 2 catches for 22 yards on the year.
London Humphreys had 2 catches for 63 yards and a touchdown in the opener against Clemson, but he has been dealing with mono since then.
The Bulldogs will look to get back on the winning track as they face an Auburn team coming off a crushing loss at home to Oklahoma.
Kickoff is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET on ABC.
