Still Behind UVA and FSU on Perfect Game

[Spotter22]

Guess we wont get any respect until we beat a top 25 team.....oh wait

[Thundercocks- Ho!]

I joked about this yesterday, but DAY-UNG!

The polls are biased, USC has to make it a large reason to be #1. As in sweeping some top ranked SEC teams. If USC is undefeated in the Month of April, and still ranked behind UVA/FSU then some pollsters need to be fired.

Remember it would be nice to go ranked #1, but the most imporant rank in baseball is 1-8.

Not only has UVA lost three games this season and we're still undefeated (biggest issue). But they struggled to beat Duke this past weekend in their two wins. All three games were one run games.

Exactly.
I don't really care where we are ranked, as long as it is in the 1-8 range.
FSU can have the No. 1 ranked regular season ranking...I'll take a No. 6 ranking, take a national seed and have the chance to host regionals and super regionals at Carolina Stadium. That is our best chance to go to Omaha (I still think if last year's Supers were in Columbia instead of Chapel Hill, we would've been in TD Ameritrade).

Does anyone have a link to all the new polls?

Perfect Game has to be a joke or something. Its not considered a major polls, and I think we know why. Though I will say Baseball America which is only had us at 3rd. At this point, it's a who cars... how do you do what we have done, and only be considered 3rd or 4th unless your an idiot.

NCAA website still has last weeks.

C'mon, give those two ACC schools a break!!

FSU "only" lost to Maryland and Miami at home. While the Wahoos "only" lost to Kentucky at a neutral site, to VMI at home and then to Duke in Durham. I guess the fact that they are in the conference games portion of their season gives them a 2-3 game pass on the Yardcocks since we have not played any conference games????

Baseball America just came out... we are No. 1 there.

Our SOS is #74, and FSU has two losses with an SOS of #15. I can see PG's argument, so what's the problem? The recognition of being no.1 is great, but I'd rather we don't have that target on our backs. #2-8 is fine with me.

While this is true and I agree with it, I want to be #1. We should always want to be #1.

I'm thrilled SC is in the top spot this week. Mainly because I won't have to listen to their whiny fans.

Exactly. And the closer we are to #1, the farther we are from #9 AKA no Super regional host.

I can see his argument concerning FSU, but Virginia's schedule isn't any tougher than ours has been. Their toughest series has been against ECU which seems to be having a down year. It will all work itself out over the course of the season though.

Some guy who thinks we whine about our rankings. I don't see much evidence of that, do you?

Find me a fanbase that doesn't whine about their teams rankings?

Also whining is in the perception of the person, I just see a discussion going on here.

I think it is more of us knowing we have a good team, capable of being #1, more than being whiney.
