Are the BaseVols the best team in America. It’s easy to say yes just by looking at their W/L record at 16-0, or it’s #1 ranking by everyone poll in America except for 1, but let’s look a little deeper.

ERA: 1st w/ 1.83
HR’s: 1st w/ 49 in 16 games
HR’s per game: 1st w/ 3.06
Runs: 1st w/ 199
Slugging %: 1st with .711
SO’s per 9 innings: 1st w/ 14.1 per game
WHIP: 1st w/ .95

Batting Average: 2nd w/ .348
OBP: 2nd w/ .489
Scoring: 2nd w/ 12.4ppg

Walks: 3rd w/ 131

Hits: 15th w/ 177 in 508 AB’s

Some individual stats worth noting:

DOYLE:
1st in SO’s w/ 47
1st in SO per 9 innings w/ 20.80
8th in ERA w/ .44

FISCHER:
4th in BoB with 22

KILEN:
3rd in slugging % w/ 1.093
5th in HR w/ 8
6th in runs

CLARK: (Freshman)
3rd in OBP w/ .636
5th in slugging % w/ 1.077

Yes indeed, the Vols are the best in the land!

Not my research, but worth passing along!

Tennessee’s opponents, to date, have a combined 65-84 record.

Tennessee has beaten two teams with a winning record.

Congrats on the pre-conference championship.

While the Vols may be the best team in the country, it is actually impossible to determine that for certain at this point.

No two schedules are the same. Your stats may be gaudy because your competition sucks.. or maybe they are amazing because those teams have been pretty good. Rinse and repeat for every team in the country.

There's probably about 10-20 teams that could win it this year, assuming they get hot at the right time and the balls bounce the right way.

Are the Vols one of those teams? Yes.

That's all you can ask for at this point of time. You are beating a dead horse if you try to prove otherwise.

Holy shite.. Doyle has 47 K's in 20.1 innings? Ok, that's impressive.

Witherspoon from OU with 40 in 23 innings is ridiculous also..

SEC baseball is going to be a street fight this year yet only one team's fanbase is acting like babies on this board about a ranking based on opinions. Just goes to show you how they really are the new kid on the block. You don't pay attention to polls until late April when you're potentially fighting for host spots.

Seems like they bragged one year then got swept by mizzou in their first conference series.

They have it figured out. It’s a lot easier to keep the ERA down just by kicking the ball all over the field

But we’re not running to the rant multiple times per day trolling about it either.

Embarrassing for tenner fans to brag about their record considering how weak their opponents have been.

It's really time to let these clowns have a thread all to themselves. Serraneaux, Dick, McCool and the creations over the last three months just discuss UT sports amongst themselves...... err self.
