Preview: Georgia Bulldogs at Vanderbilt Commodores NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Interstat) — A pivotal Southeastern Conference men’s basketball clash is set for Wednesday, Feb. 25, 2026, as the surging Georgia Bulldogs visit the slumping Vanderbilt Commodores at Memorial Gymnasium. Vanderbilt (21-6 overall) enters looking to halt a two-game skid following narrow losses to Missouri and Tennessee. The Commodores’ defense, anchored by forward Jalen Washington, remains formidable. Washington is averaging 8.0 points and 8.1 rebounds per game, but his recent shot-blocking prowess was on full display with six blocks against Tennessee. Vanderbilt’s offense will lean on guards Tyler Tanner and Duke Miles, who combined for 28 points in that loss. Georgia (19-8) rides a wave of momentum after impressive wins over then-Kentucky and Texas last week. The Bulldogs’ offense is powered by guard Blue Cain, who is averaging 17.3 points over his last seven games, including a 20-point performance in the upset at Kentucky. In the 91-80 win over Texas, Georgia showcased balanced scoring with Marcus Millender adding 15 points and Somto Cyril contributing 13 points and three blocks. The matchup pits Georgia’s high-scoring attack against a Vanderbilt team that has struggled offensively during its losing streak, failing to reach 70 points in either contest. The Commodores will need to contain Cain and disrupt Georgia’s rhythm to protect their home court. This game carries significant weight for SEC tournament seeding. Vanderbilt seeks to right the ship before a daunting road trip to Kentucky, while Georgia aims to solidify its NCAA tournament resume with a key road victory. Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. EST.
