In a tale of two halves, an offensive outpour in the second half would lift the University of Georgia men’s basketball team to their first SEC win of the season, defeating the Ole Miss Rebels 78-74 Saturday afternoon at The Pavilion at Ole Miss.
After shooting just 41-percent from the field and 29 points, the Bulldogs’ offense exploded in the second half shooting 75-percent and scoring 49. As a team, the Bulldogs shot season high percentages in both free throws and 3-pointers. Georgia shot 15-17 from the charity strip, 82-percent, and was 9-15 from behind the arc, 60-percent.
