Should be in a tier of their own


Mizzou should also be knocked down a tier. Title was in 54, haven't made the CWS since 64, haven't even made it to the NCAAT since joining the SEC

VERY! I have to give the nod to MSU for having more NCAAT appearances (39-36) and conference titles(17-15).

I think State is the 2nd most historical baseball program in the SEC, even above South Carolina and Vandy who each have two titles. State has the history and the fan base to make them the second most historical.

South Carolina has a better history at the CWS than MSU does. It’s really not that close

I moved them up to 4 ahead of UF because of how much respect I have for their program.
But IMO baseball (much like basketball) is all about tournament success as it relates to overall rankings.
South Carolina has a very strong history.

NC: USC-2 MSU-1
R-up: USC-4 MSU-1
CWS: USC-11 MSU-12
NCAAT: USC-33 MSU-39

As for Vandy, 2 NC's and 2 R-up's is too impressive for MSU to be ranked above them. Only 15 programs in college baseball have 2 or more NC's.

This is a historical ranking and I don't think Mizzou should be in tier 3 just because they haven't been good in a long time.

But I did rank UGA above Mizzou even though they have fewer runner-up finishes (1-3), because their success is more recent.

South Carolina was national runner up twice in the 1970's, went to Omaha 3 times in the 1980's, 3 times in the 2000's and won 2 titles and was national runner up in the 2010's. We've been a top tier baseball program for 50 years.
