Georgia unsure if Javon Bullard, Ladd McConkey will play Sat.

Defending champion and No. 1-ranked Georgia begins the week of the SEC opener with the status of stars on offense and defense in doubt.

Coach Kirby Smart on Monday said he didn't know if safety Javon Bullard or receiver Ladd McConkey would be available for Saturday's game against division opponent South Carolina.

Bullard, a preseason All-SEC first-team pick, sprained his ankle during Saturday's victory against Ball State and did not return. McConkey, an All-SEC second-team selection last season, has not dressed for either of the Bulldogs' first two games because of a back injury.
