With the unveiling of Baseball America's preseason college baseball poll on Monday, Mississippi State notched its fourth top 25 ranking of the preseason.
The outlet placed the Bulldogs No. 20 in the nation. It was the lowest ranking the diamond dogs have received from various college baseball voters thus far.
Kentucky and Ole Miss joined MSU as SEC teams in the poll that finished last season unranked.
Baseball America placed a total of seven SEC teams in the top 25, including Florida who has been the consensus No. 1 team in the land. The full poll can be viewed here.
MSU in the polls:
D1 Baseball: 15
Collegiate: 11
Perfect Game: 17
Baseball America: 20
The final two polls to be released will be the USA Today Coaches Poll and the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association Poll. The coaches poll is expected to be released next week. No word yet on the release of the NCBWA poll, but we will update both of those as they come out.
Once the season gets underway, we will only follow two polls -- most likely D1 Baseball and Baseball America or coaches.
