West Virginia and Arizona Are Only Big 12 Teams in Week 13 Baseball Polls
The TCU Horned Frogs (33-15, 15-9 Big 12) have fluctuated in and out of the polls all season. After losing the series this past weekend to Arizona, the Frogs find themselves tied for third place in the Big 12 standings and once again not ranked in any of the national polls. They are still receiving votes in two polls.
Meanwhile, with the win, Arizona is now ranked in all five polls. West Virginia is the only other Big 12 team ranked in the Week 13 polls.
Nationally, for the first time in weeks, the No. 1 spot varies, depending on which poll you read. In the Baseball America and Perfect Game polls, Georgia (39-11) holds the top spot. Texas (38-8) remains at the top spot in the D1 Baseball and USA Today Coaches Polls. Arkansas is in the top slot in the NCBWA poll.
In addition to those three, the remaining Top Five consists of Auburn, Florida State, LSU, North Carolina, and Oregon, again depending on the poll.
