The combination of a slow start and missing its leading scorer, Terry Roberts, doomed Georgia men’s basketball in its road matchup on Saturday against Texas A&M.

The Bulldogs (14-9, 4-6) were missing Roberts from the lineup due to a concussion. So, the Aggies (16-7, 8-2) were able to exploit his absence and cruise to an 82-57 victory at Reid Arena.

A positive for Georgia was guard Justin Hill scoring a season-high 20 points. He was 9-of-11 from the free-throw line with two rebounds, three assists and three steals in the loss.
