Game card: Ole Miss

Opponent:  Mississippi
Record:  19-8 (10-4)
Best player:  Stefan Moody
Line:  Ole Miss -4.5

Why Georgia will win:  They already did it once, right?  Apparently the Bulldogs are road warriors, now, taking care of business in College Station and Tuscaloosa.  They are inching back towards health, and Marcus Thornton, in particular, is looking like his old self.  Also, believe it or not, 5 of Mississippi's losses have come at home.

Why Georgia will lose:  Since the loss in Athens, Ole Miss is 8-1, and the only loss was by 1 point to a ranked Arkansas team.  It has been addition by subtraction, as the "loss" of Marshall Henderson has allowed guys like Moody and Jarvis Summers to shine.  Moody, in particular, has been on fire of late, and he does not miss from the free throw line.  Georgia won by largely holding Summers in check during the first meeting, but that's not likely to happen again.

What I think will happen:  Your guess is as good as mine.  Ole Miss is hot, and I'm betting they stay that way.  Dawgs lose 68-61.
