Deep Thoughts, by Buzz Studley
Georgia and Iowa are among the teams that dropped to the bubble with losses Saturday. Both are likely to remain in my updated "Field of 68" projection tomorrow, but they'd be wise to pick up a signature win or two down the stretch. Neither the Bulldog or Hawkeye resumes scream, "We deserve an at-large bid."
