I believe you wouldn't have issue travelling back with the expired visa. But you must renew the visa before you can be allowed back in with your I20. The best thing is to apply for renewal once you get back to your country. You shouldnt have any issue with the renewal of you are in good standing with your academics. Make sure you go to the interview with a copy of official transcript and your updated I20 from your school.

Goodluck.
