Whats Chris Lofton status on Sunday?

Anyone know if Tennessee's guard Chris Lofton will be playing tomorrow or not? I know he has a sprained ankle, but I haven't see any updated reports on him tonight yet?

I just see him listed as Doubtful, Dan. So I would figure he is not playing. But maybe we could get a update closer to gametime.

I'm going to try and find out and keep you posted if I hear back.

The line wouldn't be out if there was any chance he was playing, IMO. He's the most valuable player in the SEC.

bigboydan, you going to play Kentucky, what is it, -8.5 or something like that, now that it looks pretty much for certain Lofton's out? I have a feeling the rest of the Volunteers hang in as often happens following an injury. Or, at least that scenario could play out, so I think I'm going to lay off this one.

I ended up passing on this game bud. I was liking the Vols in this game, till it was confirmed that Lofton is out.
