Latest on Pettway's Playing Status

Tuesday, Nov. 22

Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn told reporters Pettway "looks like he's ready to go" and will play against Alabama.


Pettway's Injury Tested Auburn's Depth

Pettway has rushed for 1,106 yards this season, and the 240-pound sophomore is averaging an impressive 6.4 yards per carry.

His absence had created a void in the power running game, but the Tigers are deep at running back and have a quality backup.

Sophomore Kerryon Johnson got the start, and he has enjoyed a strong season in his own right. He has 823 rushing yards and a team-leading 11 scores on the ground. He will be called on if Pettway can't handle a full workload or aggravates the injury.
