The regular season continues to wind down across the nation in college baseball, and the latest D1Baseball Top 25 rankings have now been revealed. Things remain steady at the top, but there are plenty of changes throughout the Top 25.

Top-ranked Tennessee dropped its first weekend series of the year, losing the first two games of the series against Kentucky. The Volunteers salvaged the weekend with a victory in the third game of the series, escaping the week with a 2-2 record and still maintaining their hold on the top spot. The rest of the top six remained unchanged, with Oregon State, Oklahoma State, Arkansas, Virginia Tech and Miami standing pat.

Southern Miss entered the week ranked No. 7, but the Golden Eagles went 2-2 on the week and dropped down to No. 14. UCLA was ranked at No. 8 entering the week, but after an 0-4 showing and a weekend series sweep at the hands of Washington, the Bruins saw a major fall to No. 23. Stanford and Texas A&M joined the top ten in this week’s rankings.

At this point of the year, every game is important with postseason implications. Teams at the top of the rankings are fighting for a regional hosting bid, while others are trying to improve their future seedings as well. There are still a couple of weekends and conference tournaments remaining, but D1Baseball’s latest Top 25 gives a good glimpse into where things currently stand across the nation.
