The situation

The Numbers

CBSSports RPI:  25
ESPN BPI:  21
CBS Bracketology:  7 seed
ESPN Bracketology:   9 seed
 
The Resume
 
Good Wins:  Stony Brook, @Colorado, Seton Hall, @Kansas State, Florida, Ole Miss
Bad Losses:  @Georgia Tech

The Schedule

Potential Top 50 Wins:  Ole Miss, Kentucky (twice), Tennessee, Texas A&M, Alabama
Potential Bad Losses:  Vanderbilt, Auburn, Missouri

What It All Means

The path to the tournament becomes a lot clearer after two straight wins.  Georgia added another good win to the resume with a victory over an Ole Miss team that I think is about to run off a lot of wins.  They also avoided a potential bad loss at Mississippi State.

There are really only three or four games left on the schedule that could turn into bad losses, including the one tonight.  If the Dawgs can find 6 more wins and avoid at least 2 of the bad losses, they will almost certainly be dancing, and if the season ended today, they'd absolutely be in.
