Georgia State coach Shawn Elliott hurt celebrating

Georgia State coach Shawn Elliott says he suffered a torn right biceps while celebrating a touchdown during last week's loss to NC State.

The Panthers scored the first touchdown of a 41-7 loss on an 8-yard Destin Coates run in the first quarter. Elliott said a fist bump during the ensuing celebration caused the injury.

He is expected to undergo surgery to repair the tear on Monday.

Georgia State plays at Memphis on Friday night.
