Boston College remains one of the best stories in college baseball this season after a big series win against Virginia, bringing in the second-highest attendance in program history this weekend. Birdball currently sits at 8-4 in ACC heading into Chapel Hill next weekend.
Alabama yet again put together arguably the biggest weekend across the country with its second straight SEC sweep, this time over rival Auburn as the Tide rolled over the Tigers. After a rocky start to conference play, the Tide appear to be a force to be reckoned with.

Kentucky suffered its second consecutive conference loss, this time to LSU which could be the biggest story of the 2026 season in the long run if it proves to be the turning point for the Tigers.

North Carolina State suffered a sweep at the hands of Georgia Tech this weekend. Arguably the most difficult start to a conference schedule of anybody in the country, the Wolfpack look to improve upon their 3-6 ACC record against Notre Dame, who stumbled this weekend against North Carolina.
Virginia took a big hit, dropping a series on the road against an extremely feisty Boston College club. The ‘Hoos have solid thus far but have their hands full with Florida State next weekend in what will be a heavyweight bout in the ACC
