The Georgia Bulldogs remain ranked as the No. 22 team in the USA TODAY Sports coaches poll. The Bulldogs are coming off another 1-1 week that featured a home loss to Ole Miss and a home win over No. 20 Arkansas.
Georgia (15-3, 3-2 SEC) lost 97-95 in overtime on a buzzer beater to Ole Miss, but bounced back to beat coach John Calipari and Arkansas 90-76. Now, Georgia will look to get some wins on the road.
This week, Georgia plays at Missouri (13-5, 3-2 SEC) on Tuesday, Jan. 20 at 9 p.m. ET (televised on SEC Network). The Bulldogs then play at Texas (11-7, 2-3 SEC) on Saturday, Jan. 24 at 1 p.m. ET (televised on SEC Network). Both Texas and Missouri are on the NCAA Tournament bubble. A 1-1 week would be solid for Georgia and maintain the Bulldogs' March Madness position.
In fact, ESPN's Bracketology currently projects Georgia as a No. 8 seed in the tournament, but there's still a long way to go for UGA. Georgia is 1-2 against ranked opponents this season. The Bulldogs have a win over No. 20 Arkansas and losses to No. 16 Florida and No. 18 Clemson.
