Top 8 for Omaha 050915

This is the 11th segment of 2015 where I will show the top eight teams in the college baseball polls as the season progresses to the College World Series in Omaha. The poll used will be the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association or NCBWA poll because that is the default among the polls at NCAA.com. Like in my local college segment I'll list the teams' records, who they played the previous week and the top performers.
