Athens, GA (SportsNetwork.com) – Todd Gurley looked sharp in his return from a
four-game suspension, but left with a left knee injury late in the fourth
quarter of No. 16 Georgia’s 34-7 win over ninth-ranked Auburn on Saturday
night.
Gurley took a handoff to the left side of the line and made a cut to his right
off of his left leg and immediately grabbed at his knee. He was helped to the
sideline and did not return.

Bulldogs (8-2, 6-2 SEC), who have won two in a row since a loss to Florida on
Nov. 1. Nick Chubb rushed for 144 yards and two scores on 19 carries.
Hutson Mason completed 10-of-19 passes for 123 yards and one touchdown for
Georgia.

for the Tigers (7-3, 4-3), who have lost two straight. Cameron Artis-Payne
carried the ball 20 times for 86 yards and a score.
