Is anyone else concerned that baseball isn’t ranked in Baseball America or D1baseball.com rankings?

So is almost everyone else who is on the verge of being really really good.
Bad teams don't get people on base to leave there.
Bad teams make enough errors that they hardly stand out.
Good teams who are close to being on top notice when they miss an opportunity to score another run or two that would have changed a game.
Those same teams notice when an error costs a run or a lead.
If our concerns over baseball are runners LOB and timely errors (things that do need to be worked on), then it means we are right there with a chance to win in the games we lose.
Things that we don't want to worry about include: "Why can't we find a Sunday starter?", "Why do we lose every game when the starting pitcher is taken out?", "Why is everyone after the 4th batter an automatic out?", "Why can't we get any extra base hits?", etc.
I don't like losing close games when we had chances or made errors, but worrying about those things usually means the team is not very far away from being really good.
On the other hand, it means the team can win any game when things go right and can lose any game when things go wrong. This definitely applies to Clemson this season.

Re: That sounds eerily similar to the argument people use

Clemson baseball = 40% of lineup is seniors and juniors
Clemson basketball = 80% of lineup is seniors and juniors
Clemson baseball does not equal Clemson basketball.
Also Monte Lee's teams have been better performers in close games.

after you end up getting banned again I can’t hear your concern trolling right now. I’m too busy basking in winning two national championships in football in the last three years. One thing that being national champions has taught most of us is that rankings don’t matter in the middle of the season. Good day coot.

Who cares where we are ranked in March/April. If you have watched any games since the U of S.C. debacle Monte has corrected the pitching staff and those 3 will give us a chance in every series we play. The bats just need to warm up with the weather and we will be good.
My biggest concerns so far have been infield errors more than normal under Monte and a true closer. Spiers has decent stats but my eyes just tell me to worry in a big moment for some reason.

why we are not ranked

Any team that starts a FRESHMAN (who doesn't understand the rivalry) against the GAMECOCKS in COLUMIA (and loses) isn't smart enough to be ranked!!!

I have never understood college baseball rankings. Look at Texas and they are in the top 10.
