#Pack9 to #6 in the @CBNewspaper Top-25 Poll #GoPack https://t.co/ng7pNohnPj
We have a hell of a team this season. Nothing seems to faze them. Duke will be a bigger test than the holes were tonight. Looking forward to seeing another series win and perhaps a jump in the polls.EthanBarry said:
Florida lost tonight..... travel to Kentucky this weekend. If we can beat Duke this weekend..... I'm not saying I'm just saying
Maybe, but they won a series on the road against a top ten team and they've been dominant all year. Understandable if they don't dropPackfan13 said:
#1 Florida went 2-2 this week. Wonder if that opens the door for State to grab the #1 spot in the Baseball America poll?
Closing out the sweep tomorrow would certainly make a strong case

I'll also add, Duke is ranked high, but they haven't won a series against a team with a winning record.Wolfpack said:EthanBarry said:Maybe, but they won a series on the road against a top ten team and they've been dominant all year. Understandable if they don't dropPackfan13 said:

I mean, they did lose to Jacksonville. If State wins tomorrow, we not only won a series on the road against a top ten team, but we swept the #3 team in the country. We also beat #8 this week. I think we would deserve it.
I thought they took both games against FSU with game 3 rained out?

I should clarify- ACC record. FSU was 9-9 until they beat BC a few minutes ago. UVA is 8-12 (and also having a terrible year, they're lucky they've won 8 games). I'm honestly not convinced Duke is that good. I certainly don't think they're top 10 goodwolfpack1437 said:I thought they took both games against FSU with game 3 rained out?

Point taken lol. I didn't know he went there, but knew that site was favorable toward them (who isn't). Florida is absolutely dominant though. It's ridiculouswilmwolf80 said:
"Not saying you're wrong but this is from one of BA's UNC grad homers."
Fixed that for you.
(FWIW, I don't think we'll be #1 either, regardless of tomorrow)
I think you are probably correct Re: Duke/top 10 but in fairness to them there are only 4 ACC teams with a winning conference record and they've only played 2 games against one of those teams-- last night and todayEthanBarry said:I should clarify- ACC record.

Yeah I didn't either until looking it up. Unfortunately for us we play or have played all 3 of the other teams- Duke, UNC-CHeat, Clemson. Possibly FSU too if they win their series next weekendEthanBarry said:
I didn't realize that ha. That would make it tough to beat a team with a winning record

They've won series against Texas Tech, Georgia and Auburn and beat Louisville earlier in the year. Much stronger resume than Duke, even though they've lost a lot. They were also ranked high in the preseason so that helps them a lot tooBigLefty24 said:EthanBarry said:Maybe, but they won a series on the road against a top ten team and they've been dominant all year.

And if we're going to scrutinize Duke, that #6 Kentucky team Florida played this weekend is 8-10 in the SEC and also got hammered by Louisville this week.
