As the back half of the SEC schedule arrives, the midway week was certainly quite a week. LSU got swept, Texas A&M had a weekend to remember, and we’ve got some major moves in our weekly power rankings. The Alabama/Auburn flip-flop happened thanks to that Auburn sweep of LSU. Texas A&M officially jumped out of the realm of the hopeless and Kentucky fell in (despite nearly upsetting Texas). After Week 10, there’s just a month of weekends left before postseason play arrives.

After three weeks of SEC play, the league divides fairly neatly into 3 tiers. First, there are the no-hopers. Five teams are 1-8 or 0-9 in SEC play. In a 30-game league season, a 1-8 start requires some massive work to have a shot at the NCAA Tournament. A .500 record, after all, would require a 14-7 run, which seems like really heavy lifting for 1-8 teams. Then, there are the hopefuls. Four teams are either 5-4 or 4-5 in SEC play. Solid, but not great.

Nothing could top the 2023 college baseball season. And then 2024 showed up — producing another SEC national champion and 3 of the greatest individual seasons in the SEC’s storied history. In the past 2 years alone, the SEC produced 14 first-round draft picks and forced countless revisions to the record books. Nicknames like Jac-tani, Tanks and CMo became part of our baseball vernacular. There’s no way more magic awaits in 2025, right? Maybe? Opening Day is here.
