(Hilary Scheinuk/The Advocate via AP) BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Freshman Cameron Thomas scored eight of his 26 points after regulation, Javonte Smart hit back-to-back 3-pointers to force overtime and LSU rallied to beat Georgia 94-92 on Wednesday night. Thomas, who came in averaging 24.6 points (No. 5 nationally) this season, set career highs with 15 free throws on 16 attempts, including 5 of 6 in the final two minutes. Smart finished with 21 points and freshman Darius Days had 13 points and 11 rebounds — his second double-double in the last three games and his third this season for LSU (7-2, 2-1 Southeastern Conference). Thomas scored LSU’s first seven points in overtime to take the lead for good and Days hit a 3-pointer to make it 90-86 with 50 seconds to play. Justin Kier hit the last of his career-high six 3s for Georgia (7-2, 0-2) and after LSU’s Trendon Watford made 1 of 2 from the free-three line, Sahvir Wheeler’s layup pulled the Bulldogs to 93-92 with 15 seconds remaining. Thomas missed the first of two foul shots and Wheeler couldn’t convert a contested layup attempt in the closing seconds. Kier, a 6-foot-5 graduate transfer from George Mason, finished with 25 points. Wheeler scored 21 and had nine assists. Sophomore Toumani Camara had 14 points and 10 rebounds — his fourth double-double in the last five games — while tying his career highs with four assists and three steals. The Tigers, coming off an 83-79 loss at Florida last Saturday, trailed by 10 points midway through the second half and Wheeler hit a deep 3-pointer to give Georgia a six-point lead with 1:57 left. Smart answered with a 3 and then stole the ball from Tye Fagan. Trendon Watford drove to the left side of the lane and, as the defense collapsed around him, found Smart for a wide-open straight-away 3 to make it 80-all 47 seconds later. The Bulldogs, who have lost back-to-back games, were called for 23 personal fouls — 17 after halftime — and were outscored 22-12 from the foul line. ___ For more AP college basketball coverage: https://apnews.Com/Collegebasketball and http://twitter.Com/AP_Top25 Giants' Andrew Thomas Is Running His Own Race, Not Worried About Other OTs © Provided by Giants Wire NFL power rankings: You can breakdown the league into four tiers SHARE SHARE TWEET SHARE EMAIL Click to expand UP NEXT New York Giants rookie offensive tackle Andrew Thomas had a rough start to his professional career, leading some to question general manager Dave Gettleman’s decision to draft him with the No. 4 overall pick. However, as the season wore on, Thomas demonstrated a steady incline culminating with his most dominant performance of the year against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 17. Still, whether it’s fair or not, Thomas will forever be compared to the other members of his draft class — Tristan Wirfs, Jedrick Wills and Mekhi Becton. But it’s not something Thomas gives much thought to, telling reporters on Tuesday that he’s running his own race and beating to the sound of his own drum. “For me, I look at it as running my own race,” Thomas said. “I want all those guys to be successful, but for me I want to be the best player I can be, the best player I can be for the Giants, for my teammates and that’s what I’m working to be. If I’m focused on what’s going on outside of me, that takes away from being the best player I can be, so I’m just focusing on myself. “[I’m] not paying attention to what’s going on in the other lanes, just focusing on what Andrew has to do, what he has to do to get better and that’s what I’ve been doing.” If the four are in a race, Thomas is currently trailing based on multiple metrics. But it’s not where you start, it’s where you finish and Thomas is gaining. “Obviously, it didn’t start out the way I wanted it to but being a rookie player, left tackle in the NFL, it’s a tough deal,” Thomas said. “So it just took time. Continued to work, just keep my head down, try not to pay too much attention to the media, obviously there’s social media and things like that.” Those who have gone to battle with Thomas this season have the utmost faith in him. Prior to his firing, Marc Colombo offered hefty praise for Thomas. So did Colombo’s replacement, Dave DeGuglielmo. “He’s got talent and he’s playing obviously at a premier position in this league. It’s not [easy] to do. I couldn’t do it. Never could, never be able to, but I see the competitiveness that’s going to take him to have a solid career,” DeGuglielmo said in December. “Now, he’s a rookie. Rookies and kickers, they all go in the same bucket with me, you know they’re all over there. They’re their own little grouping of individuals. You need them, they’re necessary and they’re important to your program but it always takes time for a rookie, any rookie to elevate his game to what the others will be. “He’ll get there. He’ll get there. I promise you this guy will get there, one way of another he’ll get there.” Head coach Joe Judge and Thomas’ teammates believe that as well. Slow and steady wins the race.

And believes today's events could have a permanent effect on the nation. 'Where are the police?' Sharpe said on Twitter, Wednesday.
