Tuesday’s College Baseball Top-50 Scoreboard & Wrapup

February 26, 2013
By

Midweek games often can be a danger for the nation’s top college baseball teams, and that proved to the case on Tuesday – as nearly 40% (10 of 27; .370) of the day’s games featuring top-50 teams from the newly-updated CB360 Composite National Rankings resulted in upsets. Mother Nature also once again played a lead role, as six of Tuesday’s top-50 games were called off due to weather, in four different states (Kansas, North Carolina, Oklahoma and South Carolina).

There also were three CB360 top-50 games on Monday (results included at bottom of this page).

Three SEC teams were among the top-50 upset victims, most notably Memphis winning 4-3 at (15) Mississippi to hand the Rebels their first loss of the season . North Florida won a 10-inning thriller at (33) Florida, 7-6, and Kennesaw State tacked on a 9-2 win at (42) Auburn.

Other than Ole Miss, the highest-ranked team to suffer a loss on Tuesday was CB360 #17 Arizona, a 3-1 loset to visiting Utah Valley. The Wolverines fashioned a 32-game win streak during the 2012 season, with that run including wins over both Arizona and Arizona State.

• Baylor 5-4 vs. visiting (32) Pepperdine
• homestanding Santa Clara 12-3 vs. (45) San Diego State
