3 things to know about Georgia

Auburn takes on Georgia tomorrow to close out the regular season. What are some of the most important things to know about the Bulldogs?

The No. 13 Auburn Tigers take on the Georgia Bulldogs tomorrow at home inside Neville Arena to close out the regular season.

Auburn will be looking for its third win in a row while Georgia will be looking to build on the momentum it got from beating Ole Miss earlier this week.

What are three of the most important things to know about the Georgia Bulldogs?

Georgia has a deep backcourt

The Bulldogs' top five scorers are all guards.

Noah Thomasson leads Georgia in scoring with 12.8 points per game, Jabri Abdur-Rahim follows closely with 12.2 points per game.

The Bulldogs are capable of putting points on the board. Auburn will need to be focused on the defensive end of the floor.

Georgia has been competitive with some of the SEC's best teams

The Bulldogs have not played like a team that is towards the bottom of the SEC all the time.

They have competed with some of the conference's top teams such as Alabama, Kentucky, Tennessee and South Carolina.

Georgia has shown its ability to compete and needs to be taken seriously.

Georgia can create turnovers 

Georgia can turn teams over. The Bulldogs average 6.3 steals per game.

Auburn will need to avoid unforced turnovers because Georgia will likely create plenty.

Tipoff is set for 5:30 p.m. CT. The television broadcast can be found on SEC Network and the Auburn Sports Network broadcast can be streamed anywhere on the Auburn Athletics app.
