ATHENS -- Georgia used five home runs to blast past Georgia Southern 14-5 Wednesday to complete a two-game sweep at Foley Field.

Bobby Felmy (2-3, 2 HRs, 4 RBI), Jason Jacobs (3-5, 2 RBI), Josh Morris (1-4, 3 RBI) and Joey Side (1-5, RBI) all hit home runs to pace Georgia's 12 hit attack. The Bulldogs head into Southeastern Conference play at 14-3 while the Eagles fall to 9-13.

Georgia erased an early 2-0 deficit, scoring nine runs in the first off Everett Teaford. Earlier this season in Statesboro, the freshman left-hander struck out nine Bulldogs in five innings of relief but Wednesday he surrendered 11 runs on 10 hits through the first four innings to drop to 4-3. Georgia's bullpen combined to throw seven innings and allow two runs on five hits to pick up freshman Brooks Brown who made his debut as a starter.
