UGA’s second-leading rusher officially out of bowl game

According to reports, running back Caleb King, cornerback Derek Owens and offensive lineman A.J. Harmon will be unavailable for the postseason game against UCF. King will miss the game because of UGA academic policy; Owens and Harmon will not play because of, as the Macon Telegraph writes, NCAA-related issues.

"We have three players that will not be here," head coach Mark Richt said in quotes released by the school. "They lost their opportunity to play in the bowl game."

All three players should be available for spring practice.

King is second on the Bulldogs with 430 yards rushing, and his 5.4 yards per carry leads the team.
