Quarterback Brandon Cox didn't practice on Sunday, a day after he was hospitalized with a stomach virus and missed the Western Kentucky game.
Cox, who said he felt much better, attended practice and watched in workout clothes.
"He's OK, but they want him to take it easy for another day or two," Auburn coach Tommy Tuberville said.
Receiver Courtney Taylor missed another practice with an ankle injury. Tuberville said that doctors are hopeful he can play on Saturday, but coaches want him back in practice by Tuesday or Wednesday so he can familiarize himself with the game plan.
Defensive end Stanley McClover played only one snap on Saturday before retreating to the sidelines when his sore ankle started giving him trouble. McClover all but guaranteed he would play Saturday against the Gamecocks.
Nose guard Josh Thompson, who has also been bothered by an ankle injury, said he was 90 percent and expected to play Saturday.
Tight end Tommy Trott (neck) did not practice on Sunday after missing the Western Kentucky game.
