The Georgia Bulldogs are predicted to be contenders in the SEC this season according to the preseason SEC coaches poll.

The Georgia Bulldogs baseball team is coming off an impressive season in their first year under head coach Wes Johnson. The Dawgs came up just a game short for a trip to Omaha after being eliminated by North Carolina State in the Super Regional round. They were contenders last season and they are projected to be contenders again this season.

The SEC coaches preseason poll was released on Wednesday and the Bulldogs were predicted to finish sixth overall in the conference. Last season Georgia went 43-17 and 17-13 in conference play. They lost their star slugger Charlie Condon to the MLB draft but they return some keynote players as well.
