    No doubt they deserve credit for sweeping in Arlington, but then again so does Arky. Being #1 right now doesn?t mean much though. We were #1 most of the non conference in 2006 and then conference play happened. It?s way too early to get a solid feel. In all sports, I don?t believe they should even have rankings until at least 6-8 weeks in. This would at least make the ranking worth while to get excited about it.

    This is the correct take. Rankings before conference play is stupid. I'll say this though about this OM team, they've got good pitching and a VERY favorable schedule. All of their tough series are at home. They get Vandy, Arky, LSU, and Auburn all at home. Whereas we travel to LSU, Auburn, USCe, and Vandy. I won't be surprised to see OM win the West honestly. However, I still think the two teams left standing in Omaha out of the West will be us and Arky. Bianco's teams always play tight and nervous during home tournament games and the possibility of not getting to Omaha with "The Greatest Team Ever" will have them playing tighter than usual.

    Also, for those who remember, we started I believe the 05 or 06 season 18-0 and got to number 1 in the polls and ended up a 2 seed in the Clemson regional. Just another reason polls before conference play don't amount to squat.
