Arkansas finished with a perfect 4-0 record last week and moved up to the No. 1 spot thanks to Tennessee’s struggles. The Razorbacks are now 30-3 on the season and 11-1 in the SEC.
Texas propels to the second spot after finishing the week 3-1 and improving their record to 26-4 on the season. While noted above that Arkansas’ most impressive wins came on the road, Texas themselves opened the nation’s eyes by defeating Georgia in a home series sweep.
The Tigers have rounded into form, finishing last week with a 4-0 record and now sit at 30-3 this year. LSU lost their series against Texas, just above them, otherwise, they’d be sitting pretty with a legitimate case to be No. 1.
