ON THE BUBBLE (IN): Georgia, Auburn, Mississippi, Mississippi State . . .
Auburn and Georgia have strong enough RPIs and enough quality wins that both should be fine if they can finish above .500 overall. Both teams enter this weekend at 25-23 and need to make hay against Tennessee (Auburn's final regular-season opponent) and Kentucky (which Georgia plays this week).
While the Diamond Dogs are in a good position with the country's toughest strength of schedule and a top 20 RPI, the problem is their 25-24 record: Georgia cannot afford to finish at or below .500, which means winning four of their final seven regular-season games and one game in Hoover to finish 30-29. At this point, every game is a must-win.

He'll be back next year.
The team has improved considerably over last year, not least of all in wins and losses, despite playing the nation’s toughest schedule and losing players to life-altering injuries in consecutive campaigns. Short of a complete collapse in the last two weekends that costs the Diamond Dogs a spot in Hoover, David Perno will return in 2012.
