In anticipation of the match up between the young Lady Dawgs and the slightly older Lady Vols, Mechelle writes
Fourteen years have since passed, and a lot has changed about women's basketball … but not so much is different with Tennessee and Georgia. Yes, Tennessee has picked up five more NCAA titles (counting '96) and Georgia is still hoping to get one. But the head coaches are still the same, and Thursday night (ESPN360.com, 7 ET), Pat Summitt and Andy Landers will match wits and talented players once again.

"I don't think about it today or getting ready for games," Summitt acknowledged of Tennessee's series with Georgia. "But we have a long history of tough battles, and not just during the regular season. We've met many times on the big stage, and I think it's been a great rivalry. And they're going to obviously have a great crowd."
Don't forget, you can hear coach Landers chat about his team with Debbie and Beth on Shootaround.
