Dogs to take on Miss. State Bulldogs tonight at Coliseum
By DAVID PACE
Sports Writer
The Georgia Bulldogs go for six
straight wins when they take on
the Mississippi State Bulldogs to
night.
The Dogs, fresh off of a 108-81
romp over Vanderbilt, face a formi
dable task in the young and tal
ented Bulldogs from MSU.
“When I think of Mississippi
State, the first thing I think of is ef
fort and then athletic ability,” said
head coach Hugh Durham. “They
put five really good athletes on the
floor.”
Don’t be fooled by MSLTs four
SEC losses. They battled Alabama
before falling late this past Sat
urday 62 57 and their only SEC
win was over top-ranked LSU in
overtime 87-80.
They are led by 6-foot-7-inch ju
nior forward Cameron Burns.
Burns is averaging 17.9 points a
game and 7.7 rebounds. The inside
play of Bums is complimented by
fellow junior forward Greg Carter,
who is averaging 11.5 points and
6.1 rebounds per game.
'The inside game is definitely

their strong suit," Dogs forward
Alec Kessler said. “Burns has ex
cellent poet moves where he can
get real close to the basket and lay
it in and get the foul.”
Sophomore standout Tony Watts
is averaging 12 points per game
this year at guard and is an all-star
candidate this season.
MSlTs speed and athletic ability
are obvious, but there is more than
just a couple of players to stop.
They have one of the best inside-
outside combinations in the confer
ence, with four of the MSU starters
in double figures for scoring av
erage.
“I think Mississippi State is
really strong,” said junior point
guard Rod Cole. ‘They’ve lost four
SEC games, but they knocked off
LSU which proves that they’re a
quality team.”
If guards Litteriol Green and
Rod Cole have a g<x>d game for

‘They can shoot it,” said Hugh
Durham. “Their perimeter game is
stronger this year so it will be hard
for us to drop off and cover their big
