Despite losing its first game in the SEC tournament for the second straight season, Georgia baseball is still projected as a top eight seed in the 2025 NCAA Baseball tournament. Baseball America released it’s latest prediction on Thursday where the Bulldogs sit at No. 6.

That comes after UGA fell 3-2 to Oklahoma on Wednesday, moving its record to 42-13 on the year. The loss also caused Georgia to slide in the RPI from No. 1 to No. 3. Auburn has the nation’s No. 1 RPI and Vanderbilt sits at No. 2. The Bulldogs swept the Tigers in Athens earlier this season and lost all three in Nashville.

According to D1Baseball, Georgia is projected as a No. 5 seed in the NCAA Tournament. That would put it in position to host a regional. Should the Bulldogs win that four-team regional, they’d move on to a two-team super regional in a best of three format for a chance to play in Omaha.

Georgia is currently ranked No. 3 in the land by Baseball America, which has yet to release updated NCAA tournament projections. Despite having the Bulldogs as a No. 5 seed, D1 Baseball ranks the Bulldogs at No. 10.

Georgia finished the regular season on Saturday with a 7-5 win over Texas A&M. That was a rubber-match win for the Bulldogs, who earned a record of 18-12 in the conference. They also went 42-14 overall won a whopping 28 of 33 games at home while going 10-10 on the road. Georgia also went 3-0 in neutral site games in the regular season. That includes a win over projected No. 16 seed Georgia Tech at Truist Park last month.

Georgia was the No. 7 seed in last season’s NCAA tournament and hosted both the regional and super regional. The Bulldogs went undefeated in its regional, which included Georgia Tech, Army, and UNC-Wilmington. They hosted NC State in the super regional and fell one win short of the College World Series. UGA earned that national seed even after losing its first game in the 2024 SEC Tournament.
