Josh Hubbard, not far behind, added a crucial 14 points to the team’s winning total.
Georgia’s Struggle and Mississippi’s Dominance

Mississippi State’s balanced offense, however, proved too strong for Georgia. Alongside Smith and Hubbard’s contributions, Moore and Murphy each chipped in with 11 and 10 points respectively. Davis, with his 8 assists, was the linchpin that held the team’s offense together. Mississippi State’s rebounding was another area where they outshone Georgia, collecting a total of 43 rebounds against Georgia’s 27. Smith took the lead in this area as well, with a total of 12 rebounds.
