I wish Virginia was the Florida Gators. UVA's 2-3 record last week would have moved them from 10th to the Top 3.
Seriously though, Virginia doesn't possess any consistent pitching, is 5-5 in their last 10, and fields a leaky defense.
They may make a regional but that's a far as I see them going.
How does Oregon stay in your Top 25 with an RPI of 63?! Cal has a better RPI, just swept Oregon State and is better than .500 in Conference play. Also, UC Santa Barbara has a 12 RPI, just went 4-0 this past week including a shutout of UCLA and is tied for the Big West conference lead. Both Irvine and UCSB deserve Top 25 recognition.
South Carolina loses 2 out of 3 @home to #2 Arkansas, and drops 4 spots. UVA drops 2-3 @home to Ga Tech and drops 4 spots. Do y'all really put serious consideration in these polls?
Dallas Baptist is 28-10 overall, 7-5 in conference and drops out of the top 25, which is highly unfortunate. The mid-majors continue to be disrespected. Critical for the mid-majors is performing well prior to the conference blood bath, and mid-week challenges. It appears DBU's open would is the series loss to Air Force. Maybe it's dropping 2 to WKU, and LA Tech. Or, maybe it's the collective. Regardless, DBU has quality wins over Oklahoma(sweep), OK St(Sweep), AL, and Arizona... 20 pre conference games with a 17-3 record (losses - IU, San Diego, TCU)... Rather than dropping DBU, maybe take a deeper look at the quality of the conference... Certainly, even from an eye test, DBU is better than OK and OK St., and believe LA Tech and WKU are in the neighborhood of 15-20. LA Tech has been playing really well, only dropping a series to Arizona, which I think is the best Pac-12 team... Rather than give demerits for conference losses, maybe it's a better indication to conference strength... Sun Belt is the same. Troy, Southern Miss should most certainly be in the field of 64 in addition to Louisiana and Costal... Still a lot of baseball to play... Nice to see Indiana State in the top 25.
