Oklahoma State swept the Beavers at Corvallis, their first home-loss sweep since 2010. Add to that their loss to Gonzaga mid-week and Oregon State should plunge out of the Top-10.

D1Baseball has Oregon State down to #12.
East Carolina is a team to watch for sure. Late '90s/early 2000s they flirted with making the CWS a number of times. They've been good but not great since then, but now they're checking in at #9 in the polls. If they can sneak into that top 8, they'd have home field advantage all the way to Omaha. They'd probably end up having to contend with UNC in the Supers, though, which is never going to be easy within the borders of the state.

Agree, they seemed to lose their mojo after LeClair died of ALS. I'm likely to go out and see them do indecent things to my homestanding Shockers this weekend. I actually have not been to a Shockers game this year for the first time since moving here, so I'm glad that for my last opportunity there will be at least one good team in the stadium!

Hoosiers going for the 3 game sweep today in Ann Arbor.
I see my Vols played 3 one run games vs FL in Gainesville and managed to win two of them. They probably had to do that in order to stay ranked in USA Today/ESPN poll

It took 12 innings for Louisville to beat the Hoosiers in Bloomington yesterday, 8-7. Midweek games aren't nearly as important as weekend series, but with Louisville kind of falling in the 8/9 position nationally, a win on the road over a ranked team cannot hurt in the quest for a national seed. Now they need to take care of Florida State at home.
With very little time left, Baseball America has their projected field of 64:

They picked Creighton over Xavier even though Xavier is first in the Big East and won the series in Omaha. Boo!!!!
