Baseball America has a nice article on the Bears. Scroll down to the strike two heading.

Daniel (Arkansas): Why isn't UCA ranked after taking the weekend series against then #3 Mississippi State? Currently 14-2 on the year with their only losses being to #2 Vandy and Mississippi State.
Aaron Fitt: The Bears have played themselves right into the mix for our Top 25, which is a pretty huge step forward for this program even though they haven't cracked the rankings yet. The thing is, I still have reservations about UCA's talent level, so I'll need to see a few more wins against quality opponents before I completely buy in. Right now, the best wins on the resume other than this weekend are against Kansas and Wichita State — those are decent wins, but not great wins. If UCA goes on the road next weekend and wins a series at Southern Miss, then I will be convinced this is a top 25-caliber team, because that will represent sustained success against very talented opposition (even though USM has scuffled lately).
