Baseball is off to a 11-0 start. Just swept the series with a good SC-Upstate team. Exciting to see our baseball team back playing high caliber again. Another tough test coming up with the Florida Gulf Coast Beach Chickens who just took the series with #16 FSU. If we sweep them do we get ranked? I don't know if we have been ranked in baseball before? Go Troy, keep the winning up Men Of Troy!!

We've been ranked quite a few times over the years, mostly by D1 Baseball or Collegiate Baseball Newspaper. If we enter the weekend 13-0, that's a statement because FGCU earned a ranking this week.

Some people don't risk jinxing things. It's baseball after all.
Don't forget the women's basketball thread.

Only team that's undefeated that is not ranked in a poll.
They apparently think Troy hasn't beaten anyone noteworthy.

See, this is why I can’t talk stick ball. Yall go deep and I only ever played pick up games.

The pitching in the right inning has been awful! 4 runs given up! Too many walks We needed this one to beat a quality ranked opponent and they fell apart ! Barring a miracle this one is ove and so is the undefeated season!

It was competitive with a ranked team. We get a chance to earn the split tomorrow, and that's still a good result. Starting pitching is beginning to shape up, but the bullpen still worries me.

Hung with a top 25 team for 8 innings. I think everything is going to be just fine this year.

10 walks will kill you and you aren't going to win to many baseball games giving up 10 runs. Let's regroup and take the series

We jinxed it with this thread. Now we have to sing the fight song backwards to undo it.

10. Walks in game one and 16 hits and game two are not going to get it done.

10. Walks in game one and 16 hits and game two are not going to get it done. Lol. Maybe the pollsters were right not to rank Troy. Sure seems that way. The pitching this year is... weird. The pitchers can strike out the side in one inning, then the next inning give up 3 walks and a HR. They're not consistent at all.

I remember reading a preseason article about the all the velocity the team had now. Speed is good and all but if it’s flat or you can’t control it, you are going to have problems

You can't win in little league giving up 17 hits and 13 runs. Either the Beach Hens are a GREAT team or we have some pitching issues against good teams. The 1976 Reds and 1927 Yankees couldn't win with those stats. Another decent test Friday against FIU-Orlando but they are not as good as the Hens

Great series win against UCF. Pitching settled down nicely. FGCU might be that good.

Watched the last two days on TV. Although I was shocked when I turned on yesterday and it said 10-0 with one out in the first! Hate I missed that action!
