Athens — A week after losing senior running back Thomas Brown, Georgia has lost senior running back Kregg Lumpkin.
And while Brown may make it back by the Florida game Oct. 27, Lumpkin could be gone for the year.
"He may or may not finish the season," Georgia coach Mark Richt said Sunday. "He has got a significant injury to the knee and he is not going to play anytime soon."
Lumpkin suffered the injury at the end of a run against Vanderbilt Saturday when he was stood up and then was hit low. At first it was thought he just had a high left ankle sprain. In fact, Lumpkin was taped up and was about to be put back into the game, but when he tried to warm back up it was obvious his left knee had also been damaged.
"(Director of Sports Medicine Ron Courson) is very optimistic that it would not require major surgery," Richt said.

Ouch, that's one banged up backfield. So this Knowshon Moreno kid - if he has to carry the load, is he up to the task?

Damn, what started out as the best 3 deep set of RB's in the SEC is now one deep.

Moreno can carry the load - this kid is really special - both on and off the field. I hate what has happened to Lump - he deserves better. Brown will be back a week sooner than expected (possibly the Fla game)- seems he broke his collar bone in the Ole Miss game but kept playing, practiced the next week and played against Tenn - one tough young man.
