COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - Malik Cooke had 13 points including the go-ahead basket with 19 seconds left and Damontre Harris blocked a layup attempt by The Gamecocks (10-15, 2-9 Southeastern Conference) snapped a five-game losing with the wild finish. Bruce Ellington had the chance to extend South Carolina's lead after Harris' big block, but missed his foul shot. That gave the Bulldogs one last chance. However, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope was too strong on his 3-pointer and Cooke got his hands on the rebound.
Robinson led Georgia with 11 points.
