Tennessee baseball dropped once again in the national polls this week as the regular season has come to a close and the Southeastern Conference is on deck this week from Hoover, Ala.
UT (41-15, 16-14 SEC) concluded the conference slate tied for seventh in the league with a 16-14 record. Ole Miss and Alabama also finished with the same mark in conference play, but since all three teams didn’t play each other this season, a tiebreaker system was used to determined seeding for the SEC Tournament this week in Hoover, Ala.
The Rebels are the 7-seed, Vols the 8-seed and the Crimson Tide is the 9-seed based on record against common opponents. Tennessee awaits the winner of Tuesday’s (16) Missouri and (9) Alabama battle for their first opponent in Hoover.
