The first weekend of college baseball is behind us, so it is time to release the first official rankings of the year.
Texas surprised no one as they dominated Rice in three games; the Longhorns cemented their hold on the No. 1 spot. Arkansas, winners of two out of three against Illinois State, follows Texas, with LSU at No. 3.
No. 4 Oklahoma State earned one of the most impressive series wins of the weekend as the Cowboys travelled to Nashville and took down the defending nation runner-up, Vanderbilt. Florida State rode its dominant pitching to a sweep of James Madison and rounds out the top five.
No. 6 Stanford earned a series win over Cal State Fullerton and remains the highest ranked team in the Pac-12. Vanderbilt slipped to No. 7, while Long Beach, winners of two out of three games at Mississippi State, rose to No. 8. Tennessee in the ninth spot and Georgia Tech at ten finish the top ten.
