Luther Burden Injured Vs Georgia
USA TODAY Sports

The No. 2 ranked Georgia Bulldogs entered Saturday's matchup against the No. 12 ranked Missouri Tigers as a 15.5-point favorite and a relatively banged-up football team. The injury to future first-rounder Brock Bowers was just one of many starters named on the injury reports this week for the Bulldogs. 

It was the Missouri Tigers who suffered their first injury of the day when star wide receiver Luther Burden went down with an injury in the second quarter. Burden has the Tigers lone touchdown in this matchup midway through the first half. 

UPDATE: Luther Burden returned to action the very next serious for Missouri.
