The SEC has nine teams in the RPI top-30 and six of the top-9
As every week- almost, I will update through the day.
If the Vols are not ranked in every poll then there should be a riot.
I'm giving "Collegiate Baseball" one more chance but I have little hope.
On 4/24/2023 the Vols were:
#24 in D1
Unranked in Baseball America
#26 in Collegiate Baseball
#8 in PerfectGame
#16 in USA Today Coaches Poll
#18 in NCBWA
#25 in RPI
Here's how the Top25 did this week. At least in the D1 Poll
Green- rising
Red- declining
White- meh
1. LSU 3-1 (lost midweek to Nicholls and swept Alabama)
2. Wake Forest 3-0 (Coastal Carolina, Wofford, High Point- off week in ACC)
3. South Carolina 1-2 (Lost twice to visiting Auburn)
4. Florida 4-0 (UNF, Mizzou)
5. Vanderbilt 3-0 (Kentucky)
6. Coastal Carolina 2-2 (L to WF, 2-1 @ Louisiana)
7. Arkansas 3-1 (L @ Mo State, Sweep aTm)
8. Stanford 3-1 (Cal, and 2-1 UCLA)
9. Campbell 0-2 ( Duke, @ Elon)
10. Uconn 3-0 (RI, 2 @ Nova)
11. Boston College 2-2 (UMass-Lowell, 1-2 vs Clemson)
12. ECU 2-2 (L at NCState, 2-1 Tulane)
13 Virginia 3-2 (W Liberty, W Towson, 1-2 Vs Duke)
14. TX Tech 1-2 (@ K State)
15. Kentucky 04-4 (Louisville and Vanderbilt)
16. Miami 3-1 (FAU, 2-1 @ Louisville)
17. AZ State 2-3 ( W CSF, 1-2 @ Oregon)
18. WVU 4-0 (Penn State, @ Baylor)
19. DBU 3-1 (L @ TCU, sweep @ Rice)
20. Duke 4-1 (W @ Campbell, W High Pt, 2-1 @ UVA)
21. Louisville 2-2 (@ KY, 1-2 Miami)
22. Oregon State 4-0 (@GCU, Vs Arizona x 3)
23. Oregon 4-1 (W Gonzaga, 2-1 AZ State)
24. Tennessee 4-0 (duh)
25. UTSA 3-1 (W Houston Christian, 2-1 @ UAB)
Kentucky will likely drop out of polls, but will get close. with their second terrible week in a row. Surely they'll fall behind Tennessee
I really think the publicity and the players names are keeping LSU ahead of Wake Forest. The Deacons have kind of accomplished more and been more consistent than LSU. They deserve to be #1 but have no chance getting there.
South Carolina should drop behind Florida and Vanderbilt who went unbeaten. They should not fall past #5. Arkansas and Stanford should move past Coastal Carolina.
Despite having a conference bye week, Campbell had 2 losses that should drop them out of top 10
Teams 10-15 bombed this week. BC lost series to surging Clemson
ECU did best out of the five. UVA feasted midweek but go exposed by red hot Duke team at home.
Because of 10-15, Look for Miami , West Virginia and Duke to make big leaps in polls.
I look for Tennessee to jump to around 16 or 17 in D1
