===Rivalries===
{{unreferenced section|date=April 2017}}
Several baseball rivalries have developed in the SEC:
* [[LSU Tigers baseball|LSU]]–[[Tulane Green Wave baseball|Tulane]]
:Historically these schools were arch-rivals in all sports, but following Tulane's decades-long de-emphasis of sports, including its exit from the SEC in 1966, baseball is the only sport in which the two schools are relatively evenly matched. On several occasions match-ups between the two have drawn national record-setting attendances. Tulane reached its first [[College World Series]] in 2001 by defeating LSU in three games in the NCAA Super Regional. In 2002, the Tigers and Green Wave drew an NCAA regular season record crowd of 27,673 to the [[Louisiana Superdome]].
* [[LSU Tigers baseball|LSU]]–[[Mississippi State Bulldogs baseball|Mississippi State]]
:Before the arrival of [[Skip Bertman]] as LSU's baseball coach in 1984, Mississippi State had long dominated the conference in baseball, with most of that success coming under coach [[Ron Polk]], who returned to coach the Bulldogs in 2002 after retiring in 1997. When Bertman arrived in Baton Rouge, LSU's long-dormant program took off, winning eleven SEC championships and five [[College World Series]] championships between 1984 and 2001.
* [[South Carolina Gamecocks baseball|South Carolina]]–[[Clemson Tigers baseball|Clemson]]
:This instate rivalry is an intense local affair, with the Gamecocks and Tigers meeting each regular season, and has gained national prominence as both teams are often ranked in the top ten nationally. The highlights of the rivalry include the [[2002 College World Series|2002]] and [[2010 College World Series|2010]] meetings in the final four of the [[College World Series]]. Each time, South Carolina emerged from the losers bracket to beat Clemson twice and advance to the national championship series.
* [[South Carolina Gamecocks baseball|South Carolina]]–[[North Carolina Tar Heels baseball|North Carolina]]
:The Gamecocks and Tar Heels met five times in the NCAA tournament between 2002 and 2013, including the [[2002 NCAA Division I baseball tournament|2002 NCAA Regional]], [[2003 NCAA Division I baseball tournament|2003 NCAA Super Regional]], [[2004 NCAA Division I baseball tournament|2004 NCAA Regional]] and [[2013 NCAA Division I baseball tournament|2013 NCAA Regional]], with the Gamecocks holding a 3–2 edge.
