It’s hard to believe it college baseball fans but we have reached the final week of the regular season and movement within the Top-25 continues at a high level. No.1 Wake Forest (42-8) is the only team in the Top-5 that stayed the same as they clinched the ACC Regular Season Championship and lead the nation in wins. The Arkansas Razorbacks (38-13) continue to methodically win games, ascend to No.2 this week, and hold a one and a half game lead in the SEC West. The No.3 spot is now occupied by the Florida Gators (40-12) after their weekend sweep, where they outscored Vanderbilt (35-16) by a total of 22-4 in the series. Stanford (34-14) holds steady at No.4 and have a comfortable lead in the Pac-12 standings. While on the heels of their surprising series loss to Mississippi State (26-24), the LSU Tigers (39-12) battle pitching concerns and fall to No.5 in the new rankings.

The Clemson Tigers (35-17) continue to be one of the hottest teams in the nation, and are up to No. 6 after their perfect (4-0) week. Tennessee (35-18) reappears in the Top-10 at No.9 with yet another SEC series victory and are now (14-13) in conference play. Duke (34-16) came out a little sluggish after exams, went (2-3) last week and drop to No.10 while losing their lead in the ACC Coastal. After reaching 40-wins and going (4-0) on the week, Dallas Baptist (40-12) is up to No.11 and own a three and a half game lead in the C-USA standings. South Carolina (37-14) have lost three consecutive series and continue to plummet in the polls, landing at No.15 currently.



With both UTSA and Maryland leaving the Top-25 this week, we have two new additions at the bottom. Southern Miss (35-15) is back in at No.24, have won 13 games in a row and are tied with Coastal Carolina at the top of the Sun Belt standings. The Alabama Crimson Tide (35-17) has come to life under the leadership of interim head coach Jason Jackson, are No.25 and if they take care of business against Ole Miss this week are in position to potentially host the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

Follow the action this week as we head to the postseason and Omaha awaits.
