It was one of the bizarre weeks in the history of
the Collegiate Baseball top 30 as the top six teams in the nation one
week ago all lost two games. In fact, of the top 30 teams, only four teams
escaped without a loss in Texas (2-0 last week), North Carolina (5-0), Michigan
(4-0), and College of Charleston (4-0). Several teams have been red-hot.
Michigan has won nine straight games as the Wolverines moved from 22nd to 19th
this week. Auburn entered the poll for the first time this year after having a
superb week with a win at this week’s No. 1 team, Georgia Tech. in 11 innings
and also two wins in three games at No. 4 Louisiana St. One team that has been
up and down the poll like a yoyo the past two weeks is Baylor. One week ago the
Bears swept a 3-game series against Texas after the Longhorns had been ranked
No. 1 for seven consecutive polls with a glistening 21-1. The Collegiate Baseball Newspaper poll is the oldest college baseball poll. Its birth took place during the 1957 college baseball season. (Top 30 Agate Follows)
