It’s getting to be crunch time in the college baseball regular season.
For the second time in as many weeks, an SEC team dropped from Baseball America’s latest Field of 64 projection, but the conference still produced its replacement, allowing it to maintain its nation-leading 13 bids.
The ACC increased its total from nine to 10 bids while the Big 12 (seven), Big Ten (four) and Sun Belt (three) also received three or more bids. The Big West and Conference USA received two bids in the latest projection, including their automatic qualifiers.
Additional Field of 64 notes:
- Alabama, which was projected as a No. 2 seed last week, stepped into a hosting position while West Virginia moved behind the hosting line and into a two-seed position.
- Texas A&M and Xavier were the only at-large teams included in last week’s projected field to not make the cut after Week 13. Southeastern Louisiana, which was projected to win the Southland, was also removed from the field, making the conference a one-bid league with UTRGV the projected winner.
- Kentucky, Western Kentucky and Virginia joined the field.
- Northeastern and Duke moved up from projected three-seeds to two-seeds while Southern California, Arizona and Troy shifted in the other direction to accommodate them.
