Game card: South Carolina

Opponent: South Carolina
Record:  17-15 (8-12)
Best player:  Duane Notice
Line:  Georgia -2.5

Why Georgia will win:  Because they're due?  In Columbia, the Gamecocks destroyed a Bulldogs team playing without Marcus Thornton.  In Athens, South Carolina used a red-hot first half to edge a Georgia team playing without J.J. Frazier.  This time, a healthy(-ish) Georgia team gets a South Carolina team playing their third game in three days.  If the Dawgs were ever going to win one, this would be the one to win.

Why Georgia will lose:  South Carolina certainly won't lack for confidence, and Georgia still isn't all that healthy.  Not only have the Gamecocks beaten Georgia twice this year, but they've won two straight games in the SEC Tournament, including last nights thriller which they first should have won, then deserved to lose, then miraculously won.  In fact, South Carolina's only loss in the last 5 was a competitive loss to Arkansas.  They're dangerous.

What I think will happen:  I think Georgia wins.  I think.  67-58.  Maybe
