Another fun weekend is in the books as the SEC joined the Pac-12 and the ACC in conference play. For the third time this year, we have a new #1 in our rankings as Vanderbilt has won 16 straight games since their Opening Weekend series loss to Oklahoma State. Ole Miss, who won their series at Auburn, returns to #2 after going 2-2 overall last week. Arkansas throttled Kentucky over the weekend and jumps Texas to become #3.
Stanford and Arizona finish their series tonight, and another Stanford loss will take them out of the rankings and leave them at 1-5 in the Pac-12. The Big 12 starts this week highlighted by #4 Texas heading to in-state rival and #12-ranked Texas Tech. Teams that are knocking on the door of the Top 25 include UConn, TCU, and Miami. The other big match-up coming up this weekend features a top-5 showdown as #2 Ole Miss hosts #5 Tennessee.
