  • #1 Florida (and its not even close)
  • #3 Stanford (3 game series in Palo Alto in late Feb)
  • #6 Aggies (Ha Ha Ha Ha!)
  • #7 Rice (Game 1 of Houston College Classic, 3/2/12)
  • #8 Arkansas (Game 3 of Houston College Classic 3/4/12)
  • #10 TCU (Games 1 and 2 of Super Regional....naturally)
  • #16 OU (3 game series in March)
  • #22 California (4 game series in Round Rock)
  • #28 Baylor (3 game series to end regular season)
  • #35 Texas State (play twice this year, always trouble)

Roughly 38% of our games this year will be against the top 40 teams in the country, and that does not include such teams like Dallas Baptist, Tennessee, Kansas State, Texas Tech, SFA, and Missouri who each received votes, and are quite capable of making a run for the post season.
