Georgia WR George Pickens to miss second straight game

Georgia wide receiver George Pickens did not make the trip to Jacksonville for the Bulldogs matchup against Florida on Saturday, according to ESPN's Mark Schlabach

Pickens has been dealing with an upper-body injury and also did not play in last week's win over Kentucky. The sophomore has 13 catches for 140 yards with two touchdowns this season. 

Georgia also will be without starting safety Richard LeCounte and defensive lineman Julian Rochester. LeCounte was in a motorcycle accident, while Rochester injured his knee against Kentucky. Defensive tackle Jordan Davis is questionable with an elbow injury. 

The Bulldogs are the fifth-ranked team in the nation, while Florida is eighth. Georgia has lost just one game this season, and it was to the No. 2-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide. Florida also has lost just one game this season, losing to Texas A&M.
