More, 107 points matches the ninth-most points the Bulldogs have scored in a game (at Texas on January 23, 1994).&#13;<br \/>\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/georgiadogs.com\/sports\/mens-basketball\/roster\/blue-cain\/9831\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"9831\" target=\"_blank\">Blue Cain<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/georgiadogs.com\/sports\/mens-basketball\/roster\/kanon-catchings\/9841\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"9841\" target=\"_blank\">Kanon Catchings<\/a> and Marcus &#8220;Smurf&#8221; Millender joined Wilkinson in double digits posting 17, 17 and 10 points, respectively.&#13;<br \/>\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/georgiadogs.com\/sports\/mens-basketball\/roster\/jordan-ross\/9838\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"9838\" target=\"_blank\">Jordan Ross<\/a> grabbed a career-high eight rebounds, four in each half.\u00a0&#13;<br \/>\n\tThe Bulldogs continued to post impressive numbers in bench and fast break points. <a href=\"https:\/\/georgiadogs.com\/sports\/mens-basketball\/roster\/coaches\/mike-white\/3620\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"3620\" target=\"_blank\">Mike White<\/a>&#8216;s team outscored the Florida State 38-25 in bench points and 21-4 in fast break points.&#13;<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<br \/>\nKEY QUOTES<br \/>\nGeorgia Head Coach <a href=\"https:\/\/georgiadogs.com\/sports\/mens-basketball\/roster\/coaches\/mike-white\/3620\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"3620\" target=\"_blank\">Mike White<\/a><br \/>\nOn the performance\u2026<br \/>\n&#8220;I&#8217;m not overly surprised offensively, but I really liked our attention to detail.\u00a0Probably the first 30 minutes of the game defensively. Didn&#8217;t finish those next probably, the second to last media four-minute games we talk about. Kind of let up a little bit defensively.\u00a0Lost attention to detail. They shoot the ball so well, and they space you. They&#8217;ve got lineups with Chauncey Wiggins at the five that&#8217;s just so hard to guard.\u00a0Defended the three well enough. But, man, we can score it. We can, especially if we&#8217;re allowed to play in space and the open floor.\u00a0These guys turn people over so much. We&#8217;ll struggle more probably against some of those other teams that really pack the paint and make us execute in half court, which we&#8217;ll continue to get better at, but we&#8217;re a talented offensive team.&#8221;<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nOn the challenge of managing the depth of this team\u2026<br \/>\n&#8220;I&#8217;d rather it. I really would. I love our depth.\u00a0We&#8217;ve got great kids, first and foremost, that work and like each other. We&#8217;re starting to get more and more connected. We passed it tonight as well as we passed it.\u00a0I know we had 24 assists or 26 maybe in another game. We had 20 tonight against a high-major team on the road and missed some. They had a couple big-time blocks at the rim late in the game, which would have been really nice assists for us. The way we&#8217;re sharing it, especially with a sizable lead, just speaks to selflessness which also speaks to the fact that these guys being shipped in and out of the game and not playing 35 minutes, playing 20 or playing 23 or what have you.\u00a0They&#8217;re staying fresher, but they&#8217;ve bought into that. They&#8217;ve accepted it. I like the level of unselfishness with this team right now.&#8221;<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nOn the start to the second half\u2026<br \/>\n&#8220;Pretty good start. We changed it up a little bit. We&#8217;re doing a little bit less film, a little bit less talking, a little bit more resting at halftime.\u00a0We looked fast. We looked fast up and down the court. We changed up practice a little bit this week.You&#8217;re always tweaking and you&#8217;re searching and trial and error throughout a season, especially with nine new guys. We may have fallen into something. I loved our pop, our first few steps in transition offense.&#8221;<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nUP NEXT<br \/>\nThe Bulldogs will take a short break before facing Cincinnati at the State Farm Arena for Holiday Hoopsgiving on Saturday, December 13.
