Game Notes:

• Tennessee currently ranks fifth nationally in average home attendance (17,211). The Vols are
riding a streak of five consecutive seasons with a national top-five finish in attendance.
• Saturday’s game marks the start of a stretch during which three of four Tennessee games take place
at home in Thompson-Boling Arena. The Vols have won seven of their last eight home games.
• Tennessee has won 14 of its last 18 games against Georgia and also has triumphed in nine of its last
10 home games vs. the Bulldogs.
• The Vols are 2-0 against Georgia on Feb. 4, with both wins coming in Knoxville (1949, 1961).
• The Vols’ roster includes four Peach State natives, including starting guards Cameron Tatum
(Lithonia) and Trae Golden (Powder Springs). That duo, along with Georgia natives Kenny Hall
(Stone Mountain) and Jordan McRae (Midway), accounts for 52 percent of UT’s scoring and 67 percent
of the team’s assists this season.
• Tennessee’s four Georgia natives have struggled recently. Tuesday at Kentucky, the quartet shot a
combined 2-for-18 from the field for just five points with four turnovers.
• Tennessee’s Trae Golden and UGA’s Dustin Ware share the same hometown (Powder Springs, Ga.)
• Senior guard Cameron Tatum is just 12 points shy of scoring his 1,000th career point. He will
become the 44th all-time member of UT’s 1,000 Point Club and the third from Georgia.
• Freshman power forward Jarnell Stokes has had four steals in each of UT’s last two games.
• Cuonzo Martin, in just his fourth season as a college head coach, defeated two coaches last month
who combine to boast five national championships. Connecticut’s Jim Calhoun has three NCAA titles,
and Florida’s Billy Donovan has won two.
• The Vols have played eight ranked opponents this season, including five in the month of January. But
just one of UT’s nine remaining regular-season opponents (Florida) is currently ranked in the AP poll.
• UT’s official NCAA RPI is up to a season-best 149, and Sagarin ranks the Vols’ SOS as 22nd nationally.

I'll be at the game tonight, excited to see Jarnell play in person for the first time. Hoping we can get a W & payback from the loss in Athens earlier this season. We have a couple big time recruits coming tonight also, hope TBA is rocking tonight for them.
