It's Monday, which means it's time to update the baseball rankings. The 'Cocks either stayed put or moved up in each poll. BaseballAmerica.com has us at sixth, USATODAY / ESPN at seventh, and Rivals.com at fifth. It's also worth noting that we're 13th on Boyd's World's RPI approximation.
The polls would suggest that we're in good shape to host a Super Regional, but the RPI approximation may hurt us. However, we should have a good chance to improve that if we can perform well in the Arkansas and Florida series. Florida is second and Arkansas seventh in the RPI.
