It’s win or go home for both programs in second game of College World Series
Texas A&M’s Jordan Thompson celebrated a 3-run homer against Oklahoma but it wasn’t enough to keep the Aggies out of the loser’s bracket at College World Series. Up next, the Texas Longhorns.Had the Aggies and Longhorns met in the middle to settle this baseball squabble, they’d have mixed it up for nine innings on Lexington High’s ball field and perhaps afterward broke bread at Texas-famous Snow’s BBQ.
A&M, the No. 5 overall national seed and the second-highest seed remaining among the eight teams, lost to former Big 12 foe Oklahoma 13-8 on Friday in the CWS’s first game. Texas, which spent a chunk of the early season ranked No. 1, lost to Notre Dame 7-3 in Friday’s second game.
The teams are competing in the 75th CWS, and both now have the odds stacked against them, no matter Sunday’s outcome. Twelve teams have rebounded to win a national title after losing their opening game, meaning there’s about an 84 percent chance each for the Aggies and Longhorns they won’t hoist a trophy to cap an otherwise solid season.
