• Rice at Southern Mississippi- Even with USM dropping their series last weekend to UAB, this is still the series of the season in Conference USA. With the league’s standing as a high-RPI league this season, there’s a good chance the conference champion will host a regional, and this series will go a long way toward figuring out who that is.
