So, LSU plays 5 teams currently in the top 10 and 9 of the top 25?

That’s true but at some point current records, SOS, RPI, etc have to outweigh trophies from past years. I’m just saying their rankings are justified imo. Thats doesn’t mean that they will win a championship though. They were a dropped fly ball away from wining one, we were an incredible catch from Josh Pearson away from losing one. There’s a lot of little things that go into a championship

I’m sure all the die hard WF fans are up in arms right now about falling so far. They haven’t seen anything like this in their entire 275 days of watching college baseball.

8 SEC teams. 9 if you count Texas who is pending. Unreal dominance
6 of the top 9 being SEC is the display of dominance here.

Half the SEC is expected to be in the top 25 by this point.

ETA there’s also 9 teams in the top 25 that are SEC, 10 including Texas fwiw

I think he specifically mentioned top 8 because that's the most important place to be in in this sport.

I’d wager a hefty sum of money you’ve watched less than three innings combined from these teams this year

Arkansas is ranked #1 so this is a silly statement.

TAMU - they are undefeated and started behind LSU to start the year...and like LSU they've played a pretty weak schedule.

Bama - 15-1 and an even weaker schedule.

At this juncture, these teams aren't different enough stats or record-wise to base anything on. Being in the top 8 after 4 weeks of non-conference play is pretty meaningless.

Very good. I haven’t watched a ton of them, but I did go to 2 of their games at Globe Life. The first was against Oregon St in which Hagen Smith had 17 K’s, the second game went 14 innings and they lost 2-1.

I've watched a lot of A&M so far, they are legit up to this point in the year. Lineup is scary and pitching has been elite. They will be tough.
