Texas vs Georgia: Live updates, TV/streaming info for SEC game
admin_news
Texas basketball will try and win a sixth consecutive conference game for the first time in 11 years Saturday, but a victory won’t come easy against a Georgia team trying to earn an NCAA Tournament selection.
The Longhorns (17-9, 8-5 SEC) will again have to play without forward Lassina Traore, who is expected to miss his fourth consecutive game with soreness in a surgically repaired knee. But Texas may want to play a bit smaller against the up-tempo Bulldogs anyway; in Texas’ 87-67 win over Georgia last month, Traore and starting post Matas Vokietaitis only played a combined 40 minutes while wing Dailyn Swain (39 minutes, 26 points) and guard Tramon Mark (34 minutes, 23 points) carried the load.
Blue Cain scored 20 points in Georgia’s 86-78 road win Tuesday at Kentucky, and Jeremiah Wilkinson chipped in 19 points. Those two guards lead the Bulldogs (18-8, 6-7) in scoring for the season.
