Auburn baseball lost its final series of the regular season at Ole Miss. Was the enough to tank the Tigers' national rankings?

When it got on the busses Saturday evening in Oxford, however, Auburn had lost two of its past three, squandering the final series of the regular season against the Rebels. Its lone win was vital, overcoming a five-run deficit to take the finale.

The Ole Miss Rebels dropped the final game of the series to the No. 6 Auburn Tigers 13-8 after falling apart late as Auburn avoided the series sweep on Saturday at Swayze Field. The Rebels wasted no time jumping on the scoreboard as Mitchell Sanford launched another leadoff home run in the bottom of the first to give the Rebels an early 1-0 lead.
