Updated D1Baseball Top 25 rankings revealed following end of regular season
Another weekend is in the books in college baseball, and now the regular season has come to an end. The postseason is now upon is, with conference tournaments set to begin early this week. As we head into conference tournaments, D1Baseball has released updated Top 25 rankings.
Once again, Tennessee sits at the top of the rankings after a perfect 4-0 week. The Volunteers are just one win shy of 50 on the season. Oregon State was previously No. 2, but the Beavers went 1-2 on the week and dropped two spots. Virginia Tech and Stanford each went 4-0 on the week and rose one spot to No. 2 and No. 3, respectively. Arkansas dropped out of the top ten after a 1-2 week, while Maryland leaped into the top ten with a 3-0 showing.
Conference tournaments provide teams with their final opportunities to boost their RPI and resumes prior to the selection of the Field of 64. The regional hosting picture is still up in the air, and some teams could elevate or solidify their status as a potential No. 1 seed.
D1Baseball also released an updated projection for the Field of 64, providing a glimpse into what the NCAA Tournament could look like if it started today.
