The first weekend of college baseball is complete, and while we got plenty of standout moments, we didn't see too much movement in the top 25 rankings.
The top 10 teams remain the same from the preseason poll, but there was some movement with the remaining 15 spots, most notably with Arizona and Cincinnati. After losing all three of its opening weekend games, the Wildcats dropped out of the ranking, paving the way for Cincinnati, which went 1-2 against Duke to take the final spot. The Blue Devils saw their ranking slide after that series, too.
Here's how the entire top 25 rankings look after Week 1, plus one of our favorite plays of the week and what we're watching for in the weeks to come.
Check out this incredible play from North Carolina's Kane Kepley, who did his best Vance Honeycutt impression with this web gem.
Rintaro Sasaki, 1B, Stanford.
Sasaki was phenomenal for the Cardinal over the first weekend of play as he registered six hits and 8 RBIs over three games played. Now, everyone is just waiting for the moment the freshman will hit his first home run for the Cardinal -- Sasaki set the record for home runs in high school in Japan.
No. 5 Arkansas vs. No. 22 TCU
As part of the Amegy Bank College Baseball Series presented by Kubota, these two top 25 teams will square off in what is sure to be an entertaining game. Both squads went undefeated in their opening weekends, and though they've still got a couple games to play before they face off, it could be a good tell for whether TCU is really deserving of being in the top 25 and whether Arkansas is really one of the top five teams in the SEC and in the country. In what will be this weekend's lone ranked vs. ranked matchup, all eyes will be on this game.
