The Southeastern Conference will see three matchups with potential College Football Playoff implications in Week 8, making availability significantly more paramount this weekend.
Some contending teams in the SEC will be without key players this week, as revealed by the injury reports, while other key players were given promising injury delegations.
Here's a look at some of the most impactful injuries and updates on impact players ahead of this weekend's SEC matchups.
SEC Week 8 Injury Report
Taylen Green, Arkansas QB (Will Play)
Taylen Green's availability was up in the air entering this week after nursing a knee injury during Arkansas' open week last weekend. Green had suffered a knee injury during the Razorbacks' upset win over Tennessee in Week 6.
Taylen Green was left off the injury report and is expected to suit up for Arkansas in a crucial matchup versus No. 8 LSU. The Razorbacks will search for their second straight SEC upset, with Green set to play against the Tigers.
Luther Burden III, Missouri WR (Will Play)
Missouri fans breathed a sigh of relief as Luther Burden III came off the Week 8 injury report for the Tigers on Thursday night.
Burden left Missouri's Week 7 matchup versus UMass with a shoulder injury, leaving his status for Week 8 up in the air. He practiced with the Tigers this week and will suit up versus Auburn as Missouri looks to right the ship after their loss to Texas A&M in Week 6.
Isaiah Bond, Texas WR (Probable)
Isaiah Bond remains on Texas' injury report but was upgraded from questionable to probable ahead of the Longhorns' key matchup versus No. 5 Georgia in Week 8.
Texas' star receiver is likely to play in the Game of the Week this weekend, as College Gameday will be in Austin this weekend. Bond was listed as questionable after sustaining an ankle injury last week in Texas' win over Oklahoma.
Domani Jackson, Alabama CB (Probable)
Despite returning versus South Carolina last weekend, grabbing the game-sealing interception for Alabama, Domani Jackson entered the week delegated as questionable.
After a promising week of practice ahead of a key matchup versus Tennessee, Jackson was upgraded to probable and is expected to suit up for the Tide as they travel to Knoxville.
CJ Daniels, LSU WR (Probable)
CJ Daniels is expected to return as LSU prepares for a key matchup versus Arkansas this weekend. He missed LSU's upset win over Ole Miss but was listed as probable after a good week of practice. The senior wideout has caught 20 passes for 239 yards in five games this season.
Keenan Pili, Tennessee LB (Out)
The Tennessee defense suffered a crucial loss with a season-ending injury to linebacker Keenan Pili, who went down with a knee injury in Tennessee's overtime win versus Florida in Week 7. Josh Huepel announced that the seventh-year senior and team captain will miss the remainder of the season earlier this week after injuring his ACL.
Smael Mondon Jr., Georgia LB (Out)
Georgia's All-SEC linebacker Smael Mondon Jr. is expected to miss his third-straight game due to a foot injury suffered in Georgia's loss to Alabama on Sept. 28. The Bulldogs' defense is getting healthier but will be without their star linebacker yet again this weekend in Georgia's key matchup versus Texas in Austin.
