PREMIUM: PG's college baseball weekly winners and losers
Vanderbilt has been the model of consistency this season, and it showed again last week why it's the favorite to win the national title at the end of the season. The Commodores had a perfect week that included a weekend series sweep over SEC foe Alabama. For that reason and more, the Commodores remain atop the Perfect Game Top 25 rankings.
Virginia, which took two of three on the road from Georgia Tech, remains No. 2 in the rankings, while South Carolina, which hosts Vanderbilt this weekend, is at No. 3 after a perfect week that included fantastic pitching on the road against Tennessee.
Florida comes in at No. 4 after a road series win over Mississippi State, while North Carolina climbed all the way from No. 13 to No. 5 following another great week that included a road series win over Florida State.
Texas A&M, Cal State Fullerton, Texas, Fresno State and surprising Oregon State round out the top 10.
Florida State, Georgia Tech and Arizona State dropped to No's 11, 12 and 13 following bad weekends while Troy and Oklahoma State entered the top 20 at No's 19 and 20, respectively, after successful weekends.
LSU dropped out of the rankings after getting swept at Arkansas. The Razorbacks, meanwhile, entered the rankings at No. 25.
The conference breakdowns are as follows: Pac-10 6, SEC 5, SEC 4, Big 12 4 and Conference USA, MWC, Big West, Sun Belt, Atlantic Sun and WAC all with one representative.
The Perfect Game Top 25 is released each Monday during the season, and always will include an additional listing of 25 teams to watch and a live chat with college baseball managing editor Kendall Rogers.
