Mascot: Volunteers
Primary color(s): Creamsicle and white
Record: 13-8 (5-4)
Best player: Josh Richardson
Line: Georgia -7
Why Georgia will win: Georgia's strengths line up well with Tennessee's weaknesses. The volunteers don't score particularly well, and they are atrocious rebounding the ball. They have two players shooting the 3-ball very well, but Georgia should be able to contain those shooters as Tennessee doesn't have big men that demand double-teams.
Why Georgia will lose: Marcus Thornton, as of this writing, still has not been cleared to play. If Thornton can't go, Georgia remains one-dimensional, and that has not worked well the last two games. Tennessee has actually be better on the road in conference, getting 3 out of 5 of their wins away from Knoxville.
What I think will happen: Does Thornton play? Vegas must think so. I'm going to say he does, and thus Georgia gets a big win 73-64.
