Vanderbilt hangs on to beat Georgia, 85-82

A shorthanded Vanderbilt team went into Stegeman Coliseum on Saturday and handed the Georgia Bulldogs their first home loss of the season, hanging on late for an 85-82 win.

With Lee Dort and Liam Robbins both on the bench in walking boots, Vanderbilt needed to find some offense elsewhere — and did. In the first half, Vanderbilt was on fire from three-point range, canning 8-of-13 from deep — two each from Myles Stute (who entered the game having shot 4-of-21 from three-point range in SEC play), Paul Lewis (who saw his first action since SEC play started), Jordan Wright, and Trey Thomas.
