Georgia’s Offense Doesn’t Miss a Beat With Nick Chubb’s Tough Running
ATHENS, Ga. (AP) – Thanks to Nick Chubb, concerns about Georgia’s running game have subsided even as Todd Gurley’s status remains uncertain.
Chubb has proved with his tough running that No. 9 Georgia’s ground game is in good shape without Gurley.
Chubb delivered impressive performances the last two weeks while Gurley was suspended for allegations he broke NCAA rules by receiving improper benefits. There has been no update on his status since Georgia filed a request Wednesday for his reinstatement.
Georgia, off this week, hopes to have Gurley back for next week’s game against Florida in Jacksonville. Georgia’s emphasis on the run won’t change even if Gurley remains suspended.
Chubb was a one-man running attack in impressive wins over Missouri and Arkansas as Georgia also was without injured tailbacks Keith Marshall and Sony Michel.
