UGA photographer recovering after sideline hit left her unconscious

AUBURN, Ala. _ Everybody in Jordan-Hare Stadium on Saturday got a scare when Chamberlain Smith, a photography intern for the UGA Athletic Association, was run over by Georgia's Brian Herrien when he was shoved out of bounds after a making a catch in the second quarter of the Bulldogs' 21-14 win over Auburn.

Smith was in a kneeling position with her camera when Herrien collided with her. She was knocked unconscious for a brief time and suffered a black eye.

Chamberlain, of Ringgold, was attended to on the sideline by UGA doctors and trainers and carefully loaded onto a backboard by emergency responders covering the game. She was treated at East Alabama Medical Center and later released with a concussion and a few bumps and bruises.

Herrien actually scored for Georgia on its next offensive play. But he was extremely concerned about Chamberlain and tweeted her best wishes right after the game.
