The big question on everyone’s mind right now is whether or not starting linebacker Ryan Flannigan will play. Flannigan has been sidelined with a shoulder injury the past few weeks of camp, and on today’s SEC Coaches Teleconference, Mark Stoops said the training staff will evaluate Flannigan at 1 p.m. today.
“If he doesn’t practice this afternoon, he’ll have a hard time playing this weekend,” Stoops said. “I think he’s very close, we’re going to evaluate him at 1 p.m. today and see where he’s at. We’ll see, hopefully he can play, but if not, we’re moving forward with some other guys.
