Tuesday College Baseball Top-50 Scoreboard/Wrapup (4/26/11)

April 26, 2011
By

There were plenty of competitive games across college baseball on Tuesday, with the lower-ranked/unranked teams winning 44% of the games (11-14) involving CB360 top-50 teams. There also were several soggy venues, with five different top-50 games rained out (one to be made up on Wed.).  front-page photo courtesy of Sam Houston State

The 14 top-50 teams that were not scheduled to play on Tuesday included: #4 Florida, #9 Florida State, #11 North Carolina, #14 Fresno State, #16 Miami, #22 Rice, #24 California, #31 Mississippi State, #33 North Carolina State, #37 Central Florida, #40 Mississippi, #47 Florida International, #48 St. John’s and #50 Jacksonvile.

The four teams that have returned to the CB360 top-50 are #36 Washington State, #43 Kansas State, #47 Florida International and #48 St. John’s (teams that fell out of the top-50: Gonzaga, East Tennessee State, Texas Tech and Charlotte).

A quick look at the new CB360 Composite National Rankings top-50 will be posted soon on CollegeBaseball360.com (the CNR formula now includes 13 ingredients: six polls/rankings … four RPI/strength factors, with the most-recent addition being the Boyd Nation Iterative-Strength-Rankings or ISRs … and three NCAA Tournament fields, w/ Perfect Game’s recent projection now joining the CNR formula).
