ATLANTA(AP) -- Georgia coach Mark Richt isn't saying if he plans to bench quarterback Joe Cox.

Cox was yanked from a 41-17 loss to top-ranked Florida after throwing three interceptions, and Richt declined to say Sunday night if the move is permanent. Sophomore Logan Gray also struggled, throwing an interception that was returned for a touchdown.

Another possible option is freshman Aaron Murray, who has yet to play and would lose a redshirt season. Richt says he'll likely announce any lineup changes Tuesday.

One bit of good news for the struggling Bulldogs: Injuries to star receiver A.J. Green and offensive lineman Clint Boling don't appear to be serious.
