    2011 NCAA Baseball Season

    http://www.ncaa.com/news/baseball/20...weekend-review

    Pac-10 • No. 19 Oregon State swept No. 5 Arizona State for the first time since 1966--and the first-ever time in Corvallis--sparked by Ryan Dunn’s outstanding offensive performances. It was also the first time the Sun Devils have been swept by a Pac-10 opponent since 1999. Dunn went 6 for 11 with three doubles, a home run and six RBIs in the series. The Beavers moved into second place in the Pac-10 standings, just a half-game behind first-place UCLA.

    ACC • No. 2 Virginia won a key series in the Atlantic Coast Conference Coastal Division against No. 11 Georgia Tech, but the Yellow Jackets were able to conclude the series on a winning note with a 10-8 victory on April 10. The loss ended a 12-game winning streak for the Cavaliers. For the Yellow Jackets, junior Jake Davies went 4 for 4 with three RBIs, while sophomore pitcher Buck Farmer notched his sixth consecutive victory. Virginia stands one game ahead of Georgia Tech and North Carolina in the competitive ACC Coastal Division standings.

    SEC

    • No. 22 Arkansas won in walk-off fashion for the second consecutive day, fending off No. 15 LSU 5-4 en route to a three-game sweep of the Tigers in Southeastern Conference action. It was the Razorbacks' first sweep of the Tigers since 2004, and moved Arkansas into second place in the SEC West Division standings, one game behind divisional leader Alabama.

    • No. 1 Vanderbilt helped Arkansas in the SEC West Division race as the Commodores earned their first sweep of Alabama since 1986. VU has won a school-record eight consecutive SEC games, and is tied with South Carolina for first place in the SEC East.

    #83 Michigan State is the highest ranked Big-10 team.

    Thus explains the small amount of interest by most Redszoner's in NCAA Baseball.

    Conference-USA is one of the Nation's best:

    http://www.ncaa.com/news/baseball/20...E2%80%99s-best

    Six of Conference USA’s nine teams were in the top 50 of the NCAA’s first RPI rankings released Tuesday. Only the Southeastern Conference (10) and Atlantic Coast Conference (8) have more, while the Big 12 (6) is tied with C-USA.

    Southern Miss, the highest in C-USA at No. 2, has been the league’s best team so far with a 22-6 record. The Golden Eagles also have a 2-1 record against teams from the SEC—long considered the gold standard for college baseball.

    Not much was settled in Southeastern Conference play over the weekend, as three Eastern Division teams and four Western Division teams are tied for first place in their respective divisions. Vanderbilt entered the weekend leading South Carolina and Florida by one game, but the Gators took two of three games from the Commodores. After the Gamecocks won two of three in the Arkansas series, all three teams are tied at 20-7 in league play. Arkansas, Mississippi State, Alabama and Auburn are in a traffic jam at the top of the Western Division standings with identical 13-14 marks.

    Positions in the Atlantic Coast Conference standings remained exactly the same as Florida State took two of three games against NC State to keep a three-game lead in the Atlantic Division, while Virginia and Georgia Tech won series against Miami and North Carolina, respectively, as the four squads stayed put in the Coastal Division standings.

    I was at the Vanderbilt-Florida series this weekend. Crazy series. Vandy had a 4-2 lead through 6 innings complete Friday night when the rains set in. The game was suspended and restarted Saturday. UF scored 4 in the last 3 innings off the Vandy bullpen to win 6-5. Vandy won the 2nd game Saturday 14-1 then lost Sunday 6-3 in 12 innings.

    That was a big, big series for us. The rain delay was a blessing - we no longer had to face Sonny Gray.

    And Gray wasn't all that great Friday. Pitched out of a couple jams.

    But yes, 8 of the 13 runs UF scored on the weekend were off the Vandy bullpen.
