Coastal Carolina beats #1 Gators 2-1

All 3 national seeds that made it to Omaha lost first game
And I love it. Seeds (aka rankings) don't mean shit.

What I do like is they play the first two rounds at campus sites of one of the teams and the attendance has been great. It sure didn't seem to bother a lot of teams this year. I wouldn't mind seeing that in other sports.

CWS going strong, so much for the over rated SEC and ACC, both Miami and Florida are headed home. There are still 3 Big 12 teams though.

Tech loses another game and zero seeds will be left.

And the dumbass committee only let three in. Had to save all those spots for the ACC and SEC.

It's like the exact opposite of basketball the last couple of years.

I know the Big 12 got some hosts but no one west of Texas hosted a regional and the PAC 12 didn't get a host for the first time in 20 years.

That ain't right. West Virginia should be pissed as well. They finished 4th and lost a 10 inning game to TCU in the Big 12 finals.

This has turned into the Big 12 invitational. Big 12 won the title in softball also.

See ya later Florida teams. Buh-Bye.

TT looked and played like the better team yesterday. That dude from Florida though hit one of the longest home runs I've ever seen in that ballpark in the 9th inning. I don't think that thing has even landed yet.

That was amazing.

Over the bullpen, over the bleachers, onto the concourse....INTO THE WIND.

Congrats to the Big 12 for not choking like in 2014, when they also had 3 teams in the CWS, but only 1 made it past the 2nd round.

Also love that no national seeds made final 4 teams

Oklahoma State is a hell of a team. Hats off to their effort.

Cats survive another day! Bear Down in the championship series!
