While the men’s basketball team started its season off on Tuesday night, the Lady Dawgs get going Thursday by hosting Kennesaw State. It begins a six-game homestand that includes Georgia Tech on Nov. 17.
Georgia, which was 18-12 overall and 9-7 last year, has the obvious goal of returning to the NCAA tournament, two years removed from earning the right to host the first and second round.
Look for this team to be strong defensively. In each of the past four years, Georgia has ranked in the top five of the SEC in three-point defense and field goal percentage defense.
