• The Bulldogs are ranked No. 23 in both the AP and coaches polls this week, UGA's first AP poll appearance since Jan. 10, 2011 and the first time the Dogs are in both polls March 10, 2003.

• Mike White has led three different programs with losing records the season before he arrived to top-25 rankings in the AP poll, also doing so at Louisiana Tech in 12-20 in 2010-11 to No. 25 in 2013 and Florida 16-17 in 2014-15 to No. 12 in 2017. UGA was 6-26 in 2021-22, the season before White's arrival.

• The Bulldogs entered the week ranked 29.3 in an average of six popular metrics (NET, KenPom, Torvik, KPI, BPI and SOR) – an increase of 189.7 spots since Mike White became UGA's head coach.

• Tennessee is UGA's fourth straight ranked opponent, the first time the Bulldogs have ever played a quartet of ranked foes in successive outings. Last Saturday vs. Oklahoma was just the fifth time Georgia faced a trio of consecutive ranked foes...also so in 1982-83, 1999-2000, 2016-17 and 2020-21.

• The Volunteers' 99 wins over
Georgia are their second-most
against any school, trailing only
their 131 against Vanderbilt.

• This is the first time in series
history both sides are in the AP
top 25. It is also the first time UT
faces a ranked Georgia team since
2/8/03, a 78-72 home win.

• Zakai Zeigler is seven assists away from 600, while his 209 steals put him three shy of Santiago Vescovi's program record (212).

• UT's DI-best 24.8 3P% defense is 1.8 percent better than second place Southeast Missouri State (26.6). That is the same gap as No. 2 to No. 19 Kentucky (28.4)

We’re gonna get smoked tonight but I’m just happy to be here

Kentucky fans really just need to embrace a move to the big ten where they could be the best baseball school. They’re kinda arse at everything else.
