Georgia RB is available for SEC Championship against Texas

ATLANTA, Ga. – Georgia will retain the services of a junior tailback Trevor Etienne (Ribs) when it faces No. 2 Texas in the SEC Championship Game, according to the league’s official availability report. After being listed as questionable all week, Etienne is no longer included in the report.

Neither did freshman tailback Chauncey Bowens, who missed the Georgia Tech game with a foot injury. Redshirt-sophomore running back Branson Robinson and redshirt-sophomore defensive tackle Christian Miller are both listed as playing time decisions. The only Bulldog out for the contest is freshman defensive end Joseph Jonah-Ajonye, ​​who sat out for the season just over a month ago.

Etienne was Georgia’s leading rusher before suffering a rib injury against Florida. He missed the entire second half of that game and was significantly limited the next week by Georgia’s loss to Ole Miss. The Bulldogs returned to face Tennessee the next week, and he was listed as opted out in the SEC’s second availability report this week. He missed the next three games.

Miller last played against UMass, where he suffered a shoulder injury that forced him to miss the final three quarters. He failed to impress the following week against Georgia Tech, and early buzz suggested he might miss the rest of the season.

Robinson has been out since Georgia beat Mississippi State in early October, a week before it faced Texas for the first time. He suffered an MCL sprain and has been back training for a few weeks.
