Oregon baseball tumbles in rankings after losing week
A tough week for the Ducks saw them slip in the latest national baseball rankings.
The Oregon Ducks just had their worst week on the baseball field so far this season. The Ducks went silent at the plate and stumbled to a 1-3 week with losses at home to Portland and on the road against Michigan, and now the Ducks are free-falling in the national rankings. The USA TODAY Sports coaches poll bumped the Ducks down to No.
20 in the latest edition of the rankings. The Ducks fell 10 spots, the most of any team this week. They find themselves between a pair of Big 12 powers: one spot behind West Virginia and one spot ahead of Arizona State.
The Ducks will host Nebraska at PK Park this weekend, and the Cornhuskers jumped up four spots to No. 17 this week. In the D1Baseball rankings, which are commonly used by teams as the official rankings, the Ducks fell six spots to No.
21. Nebraska checked in at No. 19, meaning the Ducks will have to face their first-ranked opponent since losing at home to Oregon State, now ranked No.
