As you know Georgia plays Michigan State up in Charlotte this Friday afternoon. Many fans on UGASports.com have different opinions on what is going to happen. Opinions are what the Dawgvent does best. What I have written down below is a satirical account on what might happen during the Georgia hoops game. It is meant to be fun, so please don't get bent out of shape. - Dave McMahon
