Saturday’s College Baseball Top-50 Scoreboard

February 23, 2013
By

Weekend action for CB360 top-50 teams rolls on during a busy Saturday, with several teams making up games that were affected by weather on Friday. There’s a total of 47 top-50 games on tap for Saturday, including 13 head-to-head matchups and nine teams slated to play twice on Saturday (in doubleheaders or vs. two different teams).

CB360 Top-50 Gameday Pages: Feb. 15  |  Feb. 16  |  Feb. 17  |  Feb. 18  |  Feb. 19  |  Feb. 20  |  Feb. 21

The updated CB360 top-50 is included below (full release coming later). Note that the formula has some tweaks going from the preseason to this update, as the rankings from Baseball America and Perfect Game are only a top-25 (preseason also included projected field of 64) while the coaches poll does not update after the first week of the season (thus the preseason poll still is used in the CNR) … thus there are some oddities towards the bottom of this top-50 but they will be fixed next week with a new coaches poll added to the mix.

Here’s the current CB360 top-50:

1-North Carolina … 2-Arkansas … 3-Vanderbilt … 4-LSU … 5-UCLA … 6-South Carolina … 7-Oregon
… 8-Oregon State … 9-Stanford … 10-Kentucky … 11-NC State … 12-Mississippi State … 13-Rice
14-Florida State … 15-Florida … 16-Arizona … 17-Mississippi … 18-Oklahoma … 19-Georgia Tech
20-Louisville … 21-Cal State Fullerton … 22-TCU … 23-Southern Mississippi … 24-Texas
25-UC Irvine … 26-Arizona State … 27-Miami … 28-Texas A&M … 29-Virginia … 30-Clemson
31-Virginia Tech … 32-San Diego State … 33-San Diego … 34-Baylor … 35-California
36-Sam Houston State … 37-Kent State … 38-Cal Poly … 39-Notre Dame … 40-Florida Atlantic
41-St. John’s … 42-Pepperdine … 43-Central Florida … 44-Purdue … 45-Stony Brook
46-Texas Tech … 47-Appalachian State … 48-Coastal Carolina … 49-Creighton … 50-Georgia Southern
