After I missed a week due to a wedding and illness, we are back with our NCAA Top 25 (so Last Week actually means two weeks ago when I last did Top 25). It was another great weekend of baseball, which I’ll talk about on my podcast, The Amateur Update, which debuts tomorrow.
Tennessee continued their dominant start by sweeping in-state rival Vanderbilt in Nashville, while Arkansas continued to quietly win another SEC series over the defending National Champions in Mississippi State. Oregon State stumbled against a disappointing Stanford team, while Florida and Florida State fell apart last week and find themselves reeling down the rankings.
