Georgia captures big road series win

The Bulldogs are moving closer to being a strong host in our latest projections. Georgia won the series opener against Missouri on Thursday before getting another SEC series win with a 5-3 triumph over the Tigers.

Georgia starting pitcher Emerson Hancock topped out in the mid-90s and put together a strong start against Mizzou, striking out seven, walking no one and allowing three runs (two earned) on three hits in seven innings. Meanwhile, the offense was led by hard-hitting Michael Curry, who went 2-for-4 with a home run, and Cam Shepherd and Mason Meadows, who each tallied a hit and knocked in a run.

With the win, the Bulldogs are up to 6 in the RPI with a 12-7 mark vs. RPI Top 50 and 26 wins vs. RPI Top 100 teams. In other words, not only is Georgia close to solidifying a host spot, it also should be strongly on the national seed discussion.

What a turnaround campaign it has been for Scott Stricklin's program so far.
