You never know if we win out and get a little bit of help and the RPI plays in our favor, we could get an NCAA at-large bid. We want to invite everyone in town for Thanksgiving and the Egg Bowl to come out and help give us that home court advantage both Wednesday and Friday.”

The Rebels had two players set records over the weekend in Nakayeta Clair and Melanie Crow. Clair set the single season record for kills (337) with nine on Friday night. As Crow set the single season service aces record (35) with a career-hive against Alabama Sunday.

Georgia is led by outside hitter Tirah Le’au, who became the 17th Bulldog to notch 1,000 kills for her career and has 300 this season for an average of 2.70.
