As the college baseball season approaches its climax in this first-ever regular season matchup, the No. 1 Texas Longhorns and Florida Gators are gearing up for a pivotal weekend series at UFCU Disch-Falk Field with positioning for the SEC Tournament on the line as head coach Jim Schlossnagle’s team enters the weekend with a two-game lead in the conference standings.
These two storied programs have only ever met in Omaha (twice in 2005, 2011, and 2018), with the series tied at 2-2. The Gators claimed each of the previous two meetings to enter with a two-game winning streak in the series, as longtime head coach Kevin O’Sullivan is 2-0 against Texas in his career and the skipper is eager to add to his 750th-career win.
