BATON ROUGE, La. – The Georgia Bulldogs were defeated by the LSU Tigers, 94-64, on Saturday afternoon at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center in the final game of the Southeastern Conference regular season.

Freshman Anthony Edwards paced Georgia in scoring for the 21st time this season. He recorded 17 points in the contest, the 27th time he has tallied double-digit points. Joining Edwards in double figures was junior Rayshaun Hammonds with 12. Hammonds led the Bulldogs in rebounding, grabbing eight boards.

“Not a good one,” Georgia Head Coach Tom Crean said. “We came out and we started settling for jumpers because the lane was a little packed. We are struggling with our focus in a lot of areas and what works and how to play winning basketball in the sense of attacking and driving. We gave up too many easy shots to them at times. We got on the glass early. We are preaching toughness nonstop, we are always working on toughness so you can’t come out at this level on the road and think that it is going to be about jump shots early. It is not jump shots early but establishing your presence and we are not good at that right now.”
