Most everyone’s thoughts are on the game in Jacksonville, but Georgia’s basketball teams will start their seasons with exhibition games next week. The teams will open the season with a double-header on Friday November 11th (the day before the Auburn football game). We’ll have season previews soon, but for now here’s information about the free exhibitions.

The Lady Dogs and Bulldogs get their 2011-12 basketball seasons underway with exhibition games next week. Admission to both exhibition games is free and all seating is general admission.

• Tuesday, November 1 Lady Dogs vs. West Georgia tip-off 7:00p.m.
• Friday, November 4 Bulldogs vs. Morehouse tip-off 7:00p.m.

Stegeman Coliseum gates will open 1 hour prior to tip-off of all home games this season, beginning with the exhibition games.
