KEY QUOTE: "Credit to N.C. State today, really tough team," said head coach Jamie Hunt. "They played well and just came up with a few more points that we did. I cannot say enough about the fight that this team showed up and down the lineup. That's Georgia toughness. That's Georgia fight, right there. It didn't go our way, but we can hold our heads high. I'm incredibly proud of our seniors who, although this is the end, they leave as SEC Champions once in their four years. That's something that every Georgia player that stays four years can say, that they're SEC Champions. Lot to be proud of for them. I know they're going to cherish a lot of special memories and a lot of special relationships that they're going to lean on for the rest of their lives. It's never easy when a season ends, but there's a lot of things that we are proud of this season. I'm looking forward to what's ahead."
