But will the Longhorns (11-8, 2-4 SEC) try and play at the same frenetic tempo as Georgia (16-3, 4-2)? Not necessarily, says Texas coach Sean Miller.
“I don’t think we can play at the speed that they’re playing,” he said. “I only say that simply because I don’t know if that’s in our best interest. I think we want to push it, and we want to play with pace (but) I don’t think we want to play at their pace. We would like the game to be played more at our pace than theirs.”
