This team is 19-10 overall and 10-7 in conference play. Not bad. It has beaten the likes of Ole Miss (twice) and Texas A&M, and both teams could also make the tournament. Georgia doesn't necessarily have a huge win, but it has done just enough this season.

There are many other bubble teams that are blowing it down the stretch. In no way are the Bulldogs one of those teams. While other bubble teams are dropping left and right, Georgia has managed to go 3-1 in its last four contests.
