#4 Ole Miss (16-7) vs. #5 Vanderbilt (19-6)  - 12pm est - Live Scoring - Ole Miss #5 Zvonimir Babic has sat out the singles portion in the last 4 matches though he's continued to play #1 doubles in each of those matches. Ole Miss won the regular season meeting 4-0 though a few of the matches never got started due to it being played indoors on 3 courts.  If Vanderbilt doesn't play any better than they did against Auburn this one will likely end with another 4-0 Ole Miss win.

State gutted one out yesterday against Florida while Texas A&M rolled over LSU so the Aggies probably have some fresher legs.

Doubles Record:

I think the home court advantage plays to A&M's favor today and I while I expect Mississippi State to be competitive I don't see them pulling the upset. I like Texas A&M in doubles and look for Shane Vinsant, Arthur Rinderknech, and AJ Catanzariti to pick up wins in singles. I think Efferding and Arconada will be ahead as well with Adams/Agarwal all even at the tie of the clinch. Prediction: Texas A&M 4-0



#1 Georgia (20-3) vs. #4 Ole Miss (17-7) - 4pm est - Live Scoring - These teams met just one week ago in Athens with Georgia winning 4-0 (box score below) but this one should be a little closer without the large home crowd in Georgia's favor.

Doubles Record:

Georgia  16-7 overall, 9-4 SEC

Georgia has been the better team in doubles so I look for the Bulldogs to grab the early lead and then in singles we'll have 4 rematches from last week though the pairings at 5 and 6 will be different.  Even though Nik Scholtz has lost 2 straight including one to Smith last week, I think the Rebel senior turns it around today and get the win at #1 singles. After failing to close out his match last week against Gustav Hansson at #3, I think Nathan Pasha gets it done today and I also like both Nick Wood and Paul Oosterbaan at 5 and 6 for the Bulldogs.  If the matches at 2 and 4 were played out (which they won't be) I'd like Lindmark at 2 in a long 3-setter and Kallberg in a long 3-setter at 4.  I think this will be much closer than last week but the outcome will be the same. Prediction: Georgia 4-1 


Sunday Schedule:

#1 Georgia (21-3) at #2 Texas A&M (20-4) - 1pm est - Live Scoring & ESPN3 &Georgia Blog - Georgia won the regular season meeting in Athens 4-1 (box score below) but only 1 of the singles matches will be a repeat.  Texas A&M will definitely have the crowd behind it since the tournament is in College Station but whether that'll be enough to push Texas A&M to the top won't be known until later today.

Doubles Record:
Georgia  17-7 overall, 10-4 SEC
Texas A&M 20-4 overall, 11-3 SEC

Georgia won the doubles point the last time they played but I think Texas A&M manages to get it this time with wins at 2 and 3.  In singles I like Austin Smith in 3, Wayne Montgomery in 2, and Ben Wagland in 2 for Georgia but I like Arthur Rinderknech in 2 and AJ Catanzariti in 2 for Texas A&M.  

The match at #6 singles could be the swing match.  Jordi Arconada didn't play his first collegiate dual match until 2 days after the last meeting with Georgia but he's managed to be a difference maker down at #6. After a slow start he's really come around and has now won 7 in a row.  Georgia redshirt freshman Paul Oosterbaan is riding a 10-match winning streak though twice in the last 2 weeks he was in big trouble only to get bailed out by the team clinch.  I'm going to take Arconada in a 3-setter and with that Texas A&M should get the 4 points they need to win it.  It should be a very close match that is definitely winnable for Georgia though A&M will likely have a little more giddy-up in their steps today playing in front of the home faithful.  Prediction: Texas A&M 4-3
