Composite of 6 major national NCAA DI rankings, March 13

Each week during the regular season, CollegeBaseballInsider.com posts a composite poll of five national NCAA Division I rankings.

In the table below, I've added PerfectGame.org to the mix for a six-ranking composite.

Louisville has replaced TCU as the composite No. 1. The unbeaten Cardinals were No. 1 in four of the six rankings. Florida State and Oregon State were No. 1 in the other polls.
 South Carolina remained ninth ijn the composite rankings, while Clemson moved up a spot to 10th. Coastal Carolina fell four spots from 21st to 25th.
 
There are six SEC teams and five ACC teams in the composite Top 25 ranking. The +/- represents rise or fall from last week's composite rankings.

     Dropped out: Vanderbilt (No. 22 last week); Georgia Tech (No. 23); N.C. State (No.25).

     Poll key: NCBWA -- National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association; BBA -- Baseball America; USAT -- USA TODAY coaches; CB -- Collegiate Baseball; D1 -- D1Baseball.com; PG -- PerfectGame.org

   Points are awarded on a descending scale, from 25 points for a first-place vote to 1 for a 25th-place vote. Some polls ranked more than 25 teams, but I kept it at the top 25 for consistency's sake. In the event of ties, the points are divided evenly among the tied teams.
