COLUMBIA, S.C. -- PJ Dozier scored seven of his 21 points in the final 2:21 as No. 19 South Carolina finished off a regular-season sweep of Georgia with a 77-75 victory Saturday.
The Gamecocks (19-4) also maintained a share of the top of the Southeastern Conference, their 9-1 league mark their second-best in program history behind a 10-0 start in 1997. That team, which went on to win the team's only SEC title, was honored at halftime for its accomplishments. But not even that group defeated the Bulldogs (13-10, 4-6) twice that season, Georgia handing the 15-1 Gamecocks their lone SEC loss.
