•  The line for this game is Georgia by 7.5 points.

•  No. 15 Arkansas came up short against No. 4 South Carolina Monday night in Colonial Life Arena, losing 104-82. Arkansas guards Chelsea Dungee and Destiny Slocum both turned in big performances for the Hogs, going for 22 and 15 points, respectively.

•  Coach Neighbors’ 2020-21 Hogs have been an offensive juggernaut so far this season, averaging 86.2 points per game, sixth in the NCAA.

•  Arkansas gets a lot of its offense from beyond the arc, where the Hogs are once again ranked among the elite. They have made 154 threes so far this season, which is the best mark in the NCAA. They are hitting 9.6 of them a game, which is currently 13th in the NCAA.

•  The Hogs also play an efficient style of basketball, only turning the ball over 10.4 times a game on average, which is currently good for fifth in the NCAA and second in the Power Five. Their +7.62 turnover margin is seventh best in the NCAA.

•  Georgia held South Carolina to its second-lowest scoring output of the season this past Thursday in Columbia. The Gamecocks — who scored just 62 points against Georgia — average over 80 points per game.

•  Georgia has won 17 of its last 22 games dating back to last year, with the only losses coming to top-15 teams South Carolina, Mississippi State, Texas A&M and Kentucky.

•  Four seniors who have all earned their undergraduate degrees and are pursuing master’s degrees sit atop Georgia’s scoring column. Jenna Staiti, Gabby Connally, Que Morrison and Maya Caldwell rank 1-4 in season scoring averages for the Lady Bulldogs. Staiti has scored in double figures in 21 of the last 23 games. She finished one rebound shy of a double-double with 15 points and nine boards against South Carolina.
