SEC injuries piling up

Florida's Cornelius Ingram. Georgia's Trinton Sturdivant. Ole Miss' Greg Hardy.

The studs are falling right and left. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Chip Towers reported Monday night that Georgia coach Mark Richt ain't too fired up about Sturdivant's status.

This would be a huge blow for Georgia. Already facing what is probably the nation's top schedule, the last thing Georgia needs is to lose its starting left tackle and personal protector of QB Matt Stafford.

The injuries to Ingram and Sturdivant are bad, but Hardy missing six to eight weeks is equally as bad. Hardy is the most talented defensive player on the Rebels' roster, and first-year coach Houston Nutt can ill afford to lose any defensive playmakers when breaking in an entirely new backfield in QB Jevan Snead and RB Enrique Davis.
