Georgia coach Kirby Smart said he's hopeful the No. 2 Bulldogs will have back a few injured defensive linemen for Saturday night's SEC showdown at No. 4 Alabama.

Smart said injured defensive tackle Warren Brinson, who missed the past two games with an Achilles tendon injury, practiced last week and should be ready to go.

Star defensive end Mykel Williams, who hasn't played since injuring his left ankle in a 34-3 victory against Clemson in the opener, was able to run last week.

"I'm hopeful," Smart said of Williams during a news conference on Monday.
