Nobody in the ranking system will give a damn about a midweek lose to Lipscomb a few day before another SEC road series win.If we hadn’t lost to Lipscomb, I think we would clearly be #1. 2-2 just feels weird to move to the top spot, but I realize the top teams lost too. The most important thing is that we just get back to consistent hitting.
So there isn't an outright tiebreaker in the regular season?Not imo. Arkansas still has Mississippi State and A&M (2nd/3rd teams in the West) so they are bound to drop some more games. Kentucky gets the 5th/6th best teams in the East to finish (Florida and Vanderbilt). If we want to win the East outright then we have to play 2 games better than Kentucky. We could go 4-2 and them go 3-3 and we still tie. Yeah we would own the tiebreaker but I don’t want to be “co-anything” with them. I want to win outright.
Yeah I think our lose to Lipscomb outweighs those two losses because their rubber match was within a few runs. Number 2 team losing 2 games on the road to the 8th ranked team is better than losing to lipscomb at home and another loss to an unranked bubble team. Objectively, that’s how I would vote it.After dropping 2 to Ky?

Yeah I was talking Antigua…that’s prob why @preacherman20 was also taking Curley…wires got a little crossed I guess!Curley is draft eligible next year. Antiqua isn’t. I think the other poster was referring to Curley. Y’all were both right but were just talking about different players.
