At 20-0, the Arizona State Sun Devils are the top college baseball team in the land as the month of March nears its end. But that is in just one poll - the USA Today poll. In the Baseball America poll, Virginia is in the top spot, and they have a huge ACC battle looming towards the weekend as Clemson (#5 and #12 in the two mentioned polls) will make the journey to Charlotesville for a three-game series starting Friday. The Sun Devils finished the week 5-0 after sweeping Houston and Cal St. Fullerton. Florida and LSU appear to be the two programs ready to carry the SEC flag.
Folks, I try my best to read up on the college baseball teams. But in honor of not re-writing someone else's material, I won't elaborate any further. I found a great place for college baseball info, though, so please click below for more. When the regionals come around and I can watch more closely on TV, then I can make a better evaluation of the teams myself. For now, please read this:
