Teddy Cahill and Peter Flaherty break down the conference title races and NCAA Tournament implications in every major conference going into the final weekend of college baseball’s regular season. They start with the ACC, where half the league is in the mix to host regionals. Things are more settled in the Big 12, but the conference standings are jumbled at the top of the Big Ten. In the Pac-12, there’s a title showdown between Arizona and Oregon State in Tucson. There’s plenty on the line in the SEC, as Kentucky enters the weekend with a one-game lead in the standings.
