Alabama Baseball Ranked in Latest Polls

Off to a 12-0 start, the major college baseball polls are starting to take notice of the Crimson Tide

Don't look now, but the Alabama baseball team is ranked in the latest major college baseball polls. 

After wrapped up a perfect 5-0 week to push its win streak to 12 games to start the 2020 season, the Crimson Tide is up to No. 25 in the latest USA Today coaches poll, and No. 23 per BaseballNews.com.

Alabama is not ranked by the D1Baseball.com Top 25, which doesn't list any other teams (receiving votes, etc.), Baseball America or the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association.

The 12 wins to begin the season are the second most in program history and ties for the longest winning streak under head coach Brad Bohannon. 

The winning streak is also tied for the eighth-longest winning streak in Crimson Tide history.

Meanwhile, 10 other SEC teams are ranked in the coaches' poll, including every other team in the SEC West.
