The Bruins, Trojans, and Ducks have been on a roll, with UCLA out to its best conference start since 1977, USC setting a program record with a 19-0 start, and Oregon winning six straight after a thrilling walk-off win over Indiana.
UCLA boasts a projected No. 1 pick in the MLB amateur draft in shortstop Roch Cholowsky, while USC has been nails on the mound and in the field, leading the nation with a 1.61 ERA and 4.79 hits allowed per nine innings.
LSU, the defending national champions, have struggled, losing seven of 13 games and falling out of the rankings. Meanwhile, other teams like Texas, Georgia Tech, and North Carolina are making waves with their impressive performances.
