    New NCAA Baseball poll has us at the top. We could end up the #1 national seed if we don't screw it up this week

    Interesting. I was just looking at rpi and seven of the top 11 are sec. And we are 11th, behind the other six. If ky and bama don't get in, all 7 sec schools who get in tourney will be hosts.

    Eta: I know rpi of 11 won't affect us, I was just saying there are 6 ahead of us to show strength of the league

    So what's your strategy this week? Try to win it all or win 1 or 2 to save arms for regionals?

    Play to win, but not at all cost.

    Play to win...but don't extend anyone. We're a top 4 seed regardless of what happens this week.

    Here's what I would do. You try to win every game but you don't overuse your needed arms. Wed- houston thurs- Dakota is on 7 days rest, he needs an outing before regional fri-sexton. Sat if still alive Pilk and so on. Brown, rigby, hump, and others get work at some point because Hudson and sexton on 100 pitch count max. If we lose they are going to throw bullpens anyway. Try to win the games and not stretch anyone to do it, we have that luxury.

    Really hope we survive long enough to get pilk some work. I would feel much better entering a regional if pilk has a good outing in the sect

    I think they're using a Twitter @NCAABSB it has around 200 followers so it's probably not a real poll.

    Just as long as we start Hudson against one of the bottom 4 teams in the NCAA and we will be OK.

    Agree and hopefully we win Weds and Thursday so we get Friday off.

    Winner. Any questions beyond this are delusional.

    Has to be Miami. We might jump TX a&m but doubt we jump Miami. we did sweep but it was a horrible team...yes it caused us to win the SEC but that doesn't jump us to where florida was likely.
    I think it's
    1)Miami
    2)MSU
    3)TX A&M
    4)Florida
    5)Louisville

    That's what I would think too. The top of the ACC is not as good the SEC's top 7, but Miami probably deserves Number One
