That was Collegiate Baseball Central which is not considered one of the main BB polls. They had USF at #25 and this week USF moved to #24. https://collegebaseballcentral.com/college-baseball-central-top-25-3202017/15250/ This week, In the major BB polls, USF moves in at #21 in Perfect Game USA. https://www.perfectgame.org/Articles/View.aspx?article=13643 Other BB polls will be released throughout the day and can be posted here as someone finds them.

If we continue the streak by winning our first few AAC games, I see no reason why the services wouldn't rank Los Basebulls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is ironic that our best win @FSU, who was #1 in the polls last week, doesn't look nearly as good after they got swept by VPI this past weekend. Our weak SOS is the primary reason cited for keeping USF out of the polls. Yet, #1/2 Louisville with a record of 19-0 has an even WEAKER SOS and that has not seemed to have hampered them. Also, Missouri with the same 19-1 record as USF has an SOS comparable to our own. If RPI was being considered for ranking, USF has a better one than both UL and UM. I presume that there is some major conference bias, as well as consideration given to prior baseball history, when deciding who to add or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
