Auburn’s Final Push for a National Seed
Auburn’s baseball team has surged to No. 3 in the RPI after a decisive series against Mississippi State, boasting a 16‑10 SEC record and a schedule ranked as the nation’s toughest. With a perfect run against lower‑tier opponents and 13 wins over Quad 1 teams, the Tigers are poised for a critical final week that includes a matchup against No. 5 Georgia at Plainsman Park. A strong finish could lock in a national seed and home‑field advantage for the NCAA tournament.
