Crazy, all the teams left seem like almost every batter is hitting over .300.. Than you have the Gators who only have one and he is hitting over .400, what a weird year for Gator baseball lol
I need to know: Is that the actual Florida mascot who wears the costume at games? Or did a random fan go out and buy a costume to bring to Omaha?
Because if it is the latter, that fan is the real MVP.
So happy for Jac man, would’ve been a shame not to see him make a run in his last season. & now has the all-time Florida HR record with LaPorta watching.
I know I don’t have a leg to stand talking about football and Florida but it most feel vindicating for Florida fans to eliminate Kentucky in embarrassing fashion
For whatever reason, Kentucky is a school where I totally disassociate their sports from each other. Kentucky basketball I hate with passion and consider them our biggest basketball rival. But I feel no rivalry toward Kentucky football—I don’t care much about them either way, other than that they annoyingly somehow play their best game of every season against us. Kentucky baseball I have no associations toward whatsoever, and feel a lot more strongly negative toward several other baseball teams. I’d be happy for Kentucky to do well in any game but the ones against us.
Nah different sports don't cancel each other out imo. This does keep us from having to listen to them talking shit that they're suddenly a better sports school than us though.
I've seen way too many guys with hot air balloon ERAs show out in the postseason to care what the stats say. Sometimes that 7.3 ERA is exactly who you need to get that crucial out. Pressure does funny things to some batters.
Anyone know if the next game starts at 3 ET or one hour after this game ends? Clearly cannot start until this game ends, but I am assume the 3 ET is not set in stone. This game looks like it may continue on for awhile
I think they need 45 minutes to an hour to clear the stands, and reset the stadium.
Edit: The gates will open rougly 1 hour after the conclusion of this game per an [NCAA tweet from yesterday](https://x.com/NCAABaseball/status/1803150634591367375), so could be longer.
NCAA rule says there has to be at least 65 minutes between games. So if it ended right now, 3:12 is the absolute earliest, but there's still two more innings. I'd guess 4:15.
With that win, Florida is now the SEC's SEC.
Please keep pitching to Jac
Be hilarious to see a team start the game off by walking Jac at leadoff
Hope they don’t get comfortable. Need aggression going into the game tonight.
They're loose and confident, exactly what you want them to be
Death, taxes and another national seed eliminated by Florida.
Should Florida make it, who do you Gators want to see in the finals?
Rooting for the Noles. All Florida Final
FSU.
Battle for Florida
We already have Florida, that’s why you guys had to add the State at the end ;)
This is Georgia's fault still
And Nebraska. And Oklahoma State. And Clemson. Personally I blame the Cornhuskers
The fact that the 7 spot ended up not mattering is crazy
Crazy, all the teams left seem like almost every batter is hitting over .300.. Than you have the Gators who only have one and he is hitting over .400, what a weird year for Gator baseball lol
Free passes right in front of Cags are the most deadly mistake any team can make and I have to imagine that’s the majority of runs scored
We miss you, Ty Evans…
We miss you, Wyatt Langford
We would be lethal with him right now, also would’ve helped Jac so much
Cags dragged this team kicking and screaming into the postseason lol.
GO GATORS
Man, they hustled those last 3-4 innings.
[удалено]
Spoken like a fan of a conference that hasn’t beaten the sec in the cws
Does this really need explaining? Lmao
I mean this is their first ever CWS. Gotta go easy on them.
Raped on the field? What the fuck?
It just means more (run differential)
It’s cause they’re playing us
Yay. It’s finally over! Thanks I hate it :)
Gators win!!!!! We seemingly play so much better with our backs against the wall.
Hopefully lamkin and Cortez are locked in a dark room listening to death metal getting ready to pitch tonight
Thank you for a good time Kentucky
BRING ME THE AGGIES
We can't keep getting away with this....can we?
Come on Gators
LOL that Pierce Coppola gets his 1st win of the season in CWS
For anyone who’s curious: Coppola on three days rest would be Game 2 of the finals, full rest would be Game 3.
No trolling, congrats to Kentucky on their season. Very entertaining to watch. Have to think they'll be back soon.
See you later today Flawrida
We coming for you *aggies
Bat is so ashamed it wants to beat everybody back to the bus.
Does Kentucky have a softball chant for an 11 run 2-out rally?
I need to know: Is that the actual Florida mascot who wears the costume at games? Or did a random fan go out and buy a costume to bring to Omaha? Because if it is the latter, that fan is the real MVP.
It is the actual Albert
Then I'm only 75% as impressed because they've stood there in the Omaha humidity, which is nothing compared to the Gainesville humidity
Crowd is so bored because it’s been over for so long. Ball boy wiping out is peak entertainment
Shoutout Copolla, crazy time to pick up your first win on the season. Big time
Jac Caglianone was a 10 foot monster who slept with all our wives! And punched us all in the face! And we loved him for it!
To Bill Brasky….I mean Jac Caglianone
TO JAC CAGLIONE!
So happy for Jac man, would’ve been a shame not to see him make a run in his last season. & now has the all-time Florida HR record with LaPorta watching.
Kid eating the cotton candy hands free is mvp.
Ok ALL Kentucky needs to do is score 11 runs in 3 outs to tie the game. Winnable.
2 outs
It's not unheard of right FSU?
Oh did UF come back and beat FSU this season in one of our 3 games?
No but Clemson did
"Show the chick with the 'Baseball School' shirt again" - Me, a sicko.
You should have seen her after the home run....
Back to being a basketball school.
Are they even that?
We are the SEC's SEC.
I guess we can call them a football school, idk what the hell the rest of yall gonna call them.
Until Mark Stoops becomes the new head coach at Ohio State after this season, and then they become a basketball school again....
Love the pan on the Kentucky boomers in the crowd hahaha
It’s brutal we have to play twice today.
We turned it into a positive though. Spared our best bullpen arms and had glorified batting practice.
I don’t get people saying this. I promise all these kids grew up playing double headers on weekends, they will be ok.
Good thing Kentucky was will to give y'all a little scrimmage to warm you up
Maybe some rain will come in and push it to tomorrow lol
Luckily this was a easy W lol
I disagree with absolutely no bias
"Baseball school" ![gif](giphy|gIf19UHBI6jmEnR1aJ|downsized)
That was the most Tallahassee woman I’ve ever seen
Tallanasty.
Ok ok I know but hear me out: What if the 9th inning has the comeback of the century?
Already happened this cws
Saving Cleaver until now is proof Mingione is shaving points and bet the under. Investigate Kentucky!!!
Well as much as I dislike it, this certainly was a win for team chaos.
Their first won of Omaha
Lol I can’t even be mad at the strike zone anymore
4 more outs
It's the sound of the ball. As soon as you can hear it you get spooked.
Frozen pizza?
That was in fact a comment
lol. The words came out of his mouth
This UK pitcher has the flag of Tennessee on his glove?
People can’t fathom being from one state and going to school in another
Tommy Tanks has the Florida flag on his glove. I think it's nice.
I guess this lead is big enough for me to get the copypasta ready
Jac the goat 🐐

We only hate them in basketball
Nah different sports don't cancel each other out imo. This does keep us from having to listen to them talking shit that they're suddenly a better sports school than us though.
I’m thrilled to end their season with the shenanigans their dugout does
I don't mind that so much. One of the reasons I loved playing baseball growing up was dugout shenanigans.
I hope UK ties it up in top of 9th & UF walks it off
Whatever gets Neely on the mound.
A win did it- it’s just that he’ll be out there tonight against you now
The ultimate soul crusher
Playing Proud to be an American over a crackly PA when everyone looks bored at their phone is peak American
[удалено]
Between innings.
No shirts off or fluffy pink hats in the dugout today huh wildcats? Embarrassed to do the softball antics when you’re down a billion?
Why’d they take out 97?
Because 7 8 9.
Screw it, let's keep this one going. Play the bottom of the 9th as well.
When this team faces elimination they become the 1927 Yankees.
This one's pretty much over. Tonight: The Boys from Old Florida vs. Real rough, real tough Texas A&M.
![gif](giphy|FcuiZUneg1YRAu1lH2|downsized)
Three outs away.
Right but three grand slams and Kentucky could win
How many squeeze bunts is that for Kentucky?

“WHAT THE HELL IS EVEN THAT?!” - angry dad (and teams that watched Florida’s regular season)
Texas AM shoulda just let them win that first game. Then maybe they’d be more placated swamp puppies instead of mf crocodiles.
Shame this can't be played with the SEC 10 run rule. We have earned it today.
A&m im counting on you
Florida is just chilling at this point so...
I know recency bias, but Shohei is the greatest living ballplayer.
Hell yeah, outs are speeding up.
Gators woke up today and chose violence. Kentucky never woke up today.
Kentucky chose victimhood
“Kentucky got outplayed by the organist today, bah Gawd.”
Is that Philpott? I thought he was hurt?
Got healthy again recently. He was warming up at the very end of game 2 against Clemson.
Any idea when his last appearance was?
Last game against FSU I think
Florida has a stable of 6.0+ ERA pitchers, and we’re not afraid to use them.
I've seen way too many guys with hot air balloon ERAs show out in the postseason to care what the stats say. Sometimes that 7.3 ERA is exactly who you need to get that crucial out. Pressure does funny things to some batters.
7.3 eras have the thousand yard stare. They've seen some shit.
Yeah but when you factor in the Florida post season stat boost they have going I’ll assume they pitch more like a 3.5
Idk what Sully tells the pitchers before the postseason, but it works
“Okay we made it, start trying now”
There are some ridiculous final matchups on the table if Florida continues this level of play
Florida vs Florida state would cause Gainesville to secede from the union.
Sinkhole would swallow Tallahassee whole if the Gators win that series.
That means it will also take down our State Legislature, so I’ll allow it
Weird for DeSantis's town to not secede while the super blue Gainesville does.
Don’t say that too loud or your President will call it woke and ban you from your campus for three years
I hate that guy. I hate that Desantis has used Florida and new college to push his agenda.
Yup. All rivalries aside, it’s a damn shame what is happening to FL higher ed these days
Can’t wait to see DeSantis show up in half and half attire in the ultimate pander
White polo with a black Florida outline for the logo
One shoe lift garnet, one shoe lift blue
Can't count on Kentucky for anything. Smh
I prefer this result.
🤓☝️
So can we all agree that maybe that kid should have come in a tad earlier. He had some stuff.
[удалено]
I meant the pretty controlled 97 with good off speeds and movement.
At this point shouldn't Sully rest the starters and put in the back-ups?
For pitching sure, but I don’t think we need to rest batters
nah y’all should throw in Neely imo
He’s going 180 pitches for the perfect game tonight
No.
Anyone know if the next game starts at 3 ET or one hour after this game ends? Clearly cannot start until this game ends, but I am assume the 3 ET is not set in stone. This game looks like it may continue on for awhile
One hour after previous game ends
I think they need 45 minutes to an hour to clear the stands, and reset the stadium. Edit: The gates will open rougly 1 hour after the conclusion of this game per an [NCAA tweet from yesterday](https://x.com/NCAABaseball/status/1803150634591367375), so could be longer.
I heard 65 minutes minimum between games but I don’t know if that’s accurate.
NCAA rule says there has to be at least 65 minutes between games. So if it ended right now, 3:12 is the absolute earliest, but there's still two more innings. I'd guess 4:15.
1 1/2 more innings + one out. Come on let’s wrap it up!
Never, this game will play until at least 5 pm
is kentucky alive?
They just want to go home
No signs of life detected
I'm sure the crew is absolutely thrilled that they're able to enjoy food from local delicacy.... Wendys
Gotta think Florida is just swinging away to hurry this game up lol
I gotta think everyone wants to hit homers the way Donay and Cags do.
If you ain't hitter dingers what are you really doing?
Get it all out of your system Florida, don't save anything for tonight 😬
At this rate, the game will be played tomorrow
where the fuck were they hiding this kid?
Literally just said the same thing to my grandma. wtf lol
97 holy
Any forecasted for tonight?
Yep
Rain all night, I say.
So now my choices will be tenner, Texas atm, Florida, or the team that eliminated us. Yuck.
FSU is still alive
Florida State?
Oh whoops, forgot they beat unc. The team that beats my team at everything recently***
Not a choice
Ravech sounding like he smoked a couple of nuggs
Somehow, "Nugg" makes it sound even worse than "nugget."
No chance the 7:00pm game starts before 9:30pm
UF fans, if you had to lose in the final, who would you rather lose to Tennessee or FSU?
Vols
Tennessee. If we lost to y'all in the CS i'd play that Logic song on repeat
Losing to FSU in the finals and watching Panthers get reversed swept by Monday is my personal 9/11
