For the first time in the 9-year existence of the D1 Baseball preseason Top 25 poll, LSU finds itself sitting at #1.
There’s approximately nine billion different college baseball polls, and LSU’s found themselves at No. 1 for at least three: today’s poll from D1 Baseball, as well as the Collegiate Baseball and Perfect Game preseason polls.
Last year LSU, of course, didn’t go as deep into the postseason as we expect around these parts. The Tigers flamed out in the Hattiesburg Regional, getting eliminated by the hosting Southern Miss Golden Eagles in the regional’s deciding game.
