"It did not finish the way we wanted to finish, but our mantra in this program is growth every single day," Georgia basketball coach Mike White said after UGA beat Florida Gulf Coast 80-72 at home this week. "We have got to get better tomorrow, and we have got to learn from this, but I know we only won by eight. We got better tonight because we showed good glimpses."

Quick Thoughts on UNC football ahead of a showdown with Louisville
UNC handled UConn last Saturday. The defense flipped its usual script, surrendering an abnormally high number of explosive plays (nine) but also generating an abnormally high level of havoc: eight QB hurries, three sacks, four tackles for loss, two interceptions (one returned for a touchdown), and a fumble recovery (with an assist from the officials).
