Auburn football dealt with the injury bug following the Ball State game. Head coach Hugh Freeze watched two of his Tigers running backs get dinged up.

Are the duo healthy enough for South Alabama? Freeze helped drop updates there via Justin Hokanson of On3/Rivals Monday.

“Freeze says RB Durell Robinson had an odd reaction where blood collected on his thigh postgame. He traveled to Birmingham to remedy the issue. Robinson will be out for the time being,” Hokanson posted on X (formerly Twitter).

Robinson carried the ball twice but tallied 54 yards — all of it on his fourth quarter touchdown run. He's not the only key ailment in the backfield.

“Auburn RB Damari Alston will be a game-time decision for South Alabama,” Hokanson said.
