D1Baseball released their preseason rankings today, with the Tigers coming in at #8.
LSU is one of five SEC teams ranked in the top 10, and one of seven ranked in the top 25.
The top 10 looks like this.
Texas comes in the top spot at #1, followed by Arkansas, Vanderbilt, Mississippi State, Ole Miss, Stanford, Oklahoma State, LSU, Flordia, and NC State.
With returning LSU standouts like Gavin Dugas, Jacob Berry, Dylan Crews, and Tre’ Morgan, the expectations in Baton Rouge are big in 2022.
