D1 Poll Updates - Arkansas #1


Collegiate Baseball:
The University of Arkansas (22-6) has been ranked No. 1 for the first time this season in Collegiate Baseball newspaper's NCAA Division I baseball poll.
The Razorbacks won two of three at South Carolina over the past weekend and sit in first place in the Southeastern Conference with a 10-2 record. Arkansas has won 9 of its last 11 games.
Georgia, ranked No. 1 last week, dropped two of three at home to Louisiana St. Of the top five teams in the rankings last week, only one had fewer than two losses, and that was Arkansas. Arizona St. moved up to second after sweeping a 3-game series at Washington. The Sun Devils have won 10 of their last 12 games.
1. Arkansas (22-6) [up 3]

Ping:
4. Arkansas Razorbacks [up 2]
Arkansas (22-6) continues its best ever start ever in Southeastern Conference play and won its fourth consecutive SEC series for the first time since 2006 after taking two of three from South Carolina. The Razorbacks also defeated Missouri State.

Rivals:
7. ARKANSAS (22-6) – Previous rank: 8
Observers have said the Razorbacks simply aren't flashy, but if 22-6 with an outstanding SEC record isn't flashy, the Hogs certainly will take it.

Baseball America:
12. Arkansas [up 1]

PG Crosschecker:
5. Arkansas [up 3]

USA Today/Coaches:
9. Arkansas [down 1]

NCBWA:
