Scores 25 off bench Pettiford amassed 25 points (10-21 FG, 3-11 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, four assists and two steals across 32 minutes before fouling out of Saturday's 104-100 OT loss to Georgia.

Impact Pettiford surprisingly played off the bench in the conference matchup against the Bulldogs, but he still led the Tigers in points and almost secured a win for the squad. Even though the star point guard shot 27.2 percent from beyond the arc, he logged his third-highest scoring total of the year. He'll likely be added back to the starting lineup versus Texas A&M this upcoming Tuesday, and he'll be utilized heavily if not.

Coming off bench Saturday Pettiford is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game at Georgia, Jerry Humphrey III of AL.com reports.

Impact Pettiford has averaged the second-most points (14.4) and the most assists (2.9) per game as the Tigers' starting point guard this season, so his playing off the bench is a bit of a surprise. Whether the 6-foot-1 sophomore's absence from the starting lineup is due to matchups or a minor injury, it's still likely that he'll be one of the first players off the bench in the conference showing.
