Update:

Not content to simple get to the top for the first time ever, Tennessee swept Vanderbilt over the weekend, to plant their flag in the polls. They are number one, and they really mean it.

The Vols are riding a program-record 19-game winning streak, their 9-0 start in SEC play is the second best for any team since the conference expanded to 12 teams in 1991. With the series loss, Vanderbilt tumbled eight spots to number 19.

Virginia took the number three spot with their series win against Georgia Tech and the Hogs overpowered Mississippi State with four home runs to clinch their 13th consecutive SEC series win at Baum-Walker Stadium.
