Per D1Baseball.com, Arkansas moved up one spot to No. 3 in the RPI with its win over South Carolina last night (coupled with Georgia's loss to Texas A&M.
The Hogs' strength of schedule actually dropped one spot to No. 3. I guess Wake Forest's neutral site game vs. Louisville was just enough to move it ahead of Arkansas, which had a neutral site game vs. the Gamecocks.
As I wrote the other day, teams with a top-5 RPI AND top-8 SOS have been a top-eight national seed 20 out of 21 times over the last 12 seasons.
