Tennessee's Jalen Hurd fumbles away sure touchdown against Georgia

Yet another player has fallen victim to not finishing the play near the goal line. This time, it was Tennessee running back Jalen Hurd, against Georgia:

Hurd surely would have scored, bringing the score to 10-7, if he'd just run into the end zone instead of coasting into it. Judging by Tennessee coach Butch Jones' reaction, it'll be the last time Hurd has that problem. Georgia later went up 17-0 off the turnover.
