Georgia football’s official availability report for Saturday’s 3:30 p.m. game against Florida has been released by the SEC.
This is the sixth game week for Georgia under the conference’s new reporting policies.
The SEC releases daily reports Wednesday, Thursday and Friday and another 90 minutes before kickoff on game day.
Georgia has eight players listed on this week’s report.
That includes two defensive backs who were ejected from the win at Texas in the second half for targeting. As a result, safety Dan Jackson and Star nickel back Joenel Aguero are set to have to sit out the first half against Florida.
Teams can seek an appeal through the conference to the NCAA national coordinator of football officials, but both are listed as out for the first half. Georgia coach Kirby Smart indicated an appeal was sought, but declined to comment further when asked on Monday.
“I’m not really worried about it,” Smart said. “It is what it is right now. Our guys are trying to get ready for Florida, and we’re going to prepare to play Florida.”
Offensive right guard Tate Ratledge could return Saturday after missing four games following TightRope surgery for a left high ankle sprain sustained in a 13-12 win against Kentucky on Sept. 14. Defensive lineman Jordan Hall (legs) also has yet to play this season.
Here’s a rundown of where Georgia stands on the report. The SEC does not specify why a player is listed, but injuries have previously been reported.
This list will be updated in the days leading to kickoff.

LB Smael Mondon, foot
