During his weekly radio show on Thursday, Auburn coach Gus Malzahn gave updates on three offensive players for Saturday’s game at Mississippi State.
According to Malzahn, offensive tackles Prince Tega Wanogho and Jack Driscoll have been practicing during the week, but there is no confirmation on whether or not they will play against Mississippi State. RB Boobee Whitlow, the team’s leading rusher, is in the same situation as the two tackles.
