DULUTH, GA. ? Georgia’s goal on Saturday, as voiced by coach Dennis Felton in his pregame speech, was to “wake folks up” about his team’s potential.

Consider Gonzaga painfully awake.

Levi Stukes scored 25 points and Sundiata Gaines added a season-high 21 to lift Georgia to a 96-83 victory over No. 16 Gonzaga.

Felton said his team seized the opportunity to “make a statement” against a ranked team on national TV.

“This was a terrific win,” Felton said. “We went in wanting to take advantage of the situation because we had the opportunity to make a national statement.”

Gonzaga coach Mark Few said his team was simply overwhelmed.

“There was no doubt today that Georgia had a stronger conviction to win the game,” Few said. “They were hungrier. They were tougher, beating us to every 50-50 ball. You win games that way.”

Georgia (7-1) forced Gonzaga (9-3) into a season-high 21 turnovers.
