Auburn baseball’s series win over No. 4 South Carolina did wonders for their resume.
Following the series win in Columbia, Auburn climbed back into the top 40 of the RPI and has also resurfaced in the postseason picture according to D1Baseball.
A series win, on the road, against a top-five team is great. It is even better when you have a chance to keep the energy going the following week. Auburn has a chance to do just that this weekend when No. 1 LSU comes to town for a three-game set.
As the calendar turns toward the back end, Auburn will need to keep playing at a high level in order to get a favorable seed at the SEC Tournament, as well as the NCAA Tournament. Playing well against LSU will do just that.
Here’s a look at where Auburn falls in major categories measured by RPI ahead of this weekend’s series with the Bayou Bengals.
