One of the biggest stories to start the college basketball season will try to pull off another upset when North Florida visits Georgia in a nonconference game Tuesday night in Athens, Ga.The visiting Ospreys (3-0) already have picked up wins at South Carolina and Georgia Tech, the latter a 105-93 victory in Atlanta on Sunday in which they made 73.7 percent of their 2-point attempts. That’s after making 25 3-pointers at a 43.1 percent clip in their first two games.”Pick what you want to take away, and then we’re going to attack whatever that looks like,” said North Florida coach Matthew Driscoll, whose team has multiple wins over power-conference schools in a season for the first time in program history. “So proud of this group and so proud of what they stand for.”Georgia (2-0) has started off with home wins over Tennessee Tech and Texas Southern, limiting Texas Southern to 1-of-19 shooting from 3-point range and holding a 53-23 advantage on the boards.”I thought we got back to just focusing on smaller details, especially on the glass and on the defensive end,” Georgia coach Mike White said. “Took more pride in defending. I just thought simply we played harder.”
