Vanderbilt Seeks End to Losing Streak Against Georgia

The No. 25 Vanderbilt Commodores are looking to halt a two-game losing streak as they prepare to face the Georgia Bulldogs in Southeastern Conference play on Wednesday. Vanderbilt's recent games have been decided by the narrowest of margins, including a 69-65 loss to Tennessee and an 81-80 defeat against Missouri, where a half-court buzzer-beater narrowly missed forcing overtime.

Coach Mark Byington expressed frustration over the team's inability to finish close games. Vanderbilt has seen the return of Duke Miles, their second-leading scorer, who is recovering from a knee injury. Tyler Tanner, another key player, has been battling the flu but still delivered a strong performance against Missouri.
