Last year was a season to forget for the Georgia Bulldogs basketball team. The Bulldogs won just six games overall and were a dismal 1-17 in conference play. Already this season, Georgia has exceeded last year's overall win total, with 14 wins, and conference win total, with four wins already. On Saturday, the Bulldogs pulled out a thrilling 81-78 overtime win over South Carolina at home. Mardrez McBride led the way with 17 points while Kario Oquendo added 15 points, including eight points in overtime. Frank Anselem also chipped in with a career-high 12 points and Terry Roberts handed out nine assists.
“A huge conference win for us,” Georgia head coach Mike White said. “I thought our crowd was incredible, a huge factor for us, allowing us to get some stops, helping us get some stops defensively in the full court and half court. We played really hard, got to continue to improve of course. South Carolina getting 13 threes was pretty significant to have to overcome. I thought we had some guys that haven't at times played really big roles for us in my opinion, but were a big a factor in this one than anyone else. Namely, Frank Anselem, Jusaun Holt and I though Mardrez McBride played his best game as a Bulldog. Those guys were terrific, the crowd was terrific, great college game, South Carolina was terrific, and we had a chance to send it into overtime, we are very fortunate.”

The Bulldogs have a chance to do the improbable and sweep the season-series with Auburn. In the first matchup, the Bulldogs held Auburn to just 35% shooting from the field in picking up a 76-64 win. The Bulldogs won the rebounding battle as well and only turned the ball over 11 times. On the season, the Bulldogs are 10th in the conference in points per game. They are fifth in 3pt shooting but just 11th in shooting. The 11 turnovers were critical, given that Georgia is just 13th in the conference in fewest turnovers per game. The Bulldogs are 92nd in the country in points allowed per game and 56th in 3pt defense.
