As we draw closer and closer to baseball season, which starts Feb. 20 at 4:00pm against Hofstra, the preseason publications are starting to come out and our Noles are getting some love... for the most part.

Most recently, the USA Today Coaches Poll came out, which has the Noles ranked at #9.

Baseball America has us at an ugly #24.

Collegiate Baseball has us at #7.

Finally, the NCBWA has us at #6, our highest of all.

So if you take all these rankings, including Baseball America's unfavorable ranking, the country thinks the Noles are roughly the #12 team in the country to start the season. Are they right?
