Feel like I’m getting the complete Tallahassee Regional experience. Both teams helped the site staff pull a heavy tarp that only got heavier as the rain poured.

The fans at Howser cheered them on.

I love college baseball.

[Florida Gators Baseball @GatorsBB]

Florida will now play Miami on Saturday night at 8 p.m. in order to comply with NCAA guidelines.

I’ve been watching the college baseball regionals since 2000, and I can’t remember a day with this many upsets

Two of the biggest upsets (maybe the 2 biggest RPI upsets) in history

Milwaukee 238 RPI over Auburn 3 RPI
St Mary’s 14 RPI over UCLA 1 RPI

Best day of the year

[ESPN @espn]

The moment Saint Mary's stunned No. 1 overall seed UCLA 😳

THE ST JOHNS RED STORM KNOCK OFF FLORIDA STATE 🔥🔥🔥

Johnnies advance to face winner of Coastal/Northern Illinois. 4th 4-seed over 1-seed win today

[ESPN Insights @ESPNInsights]

Florida made it happen in the ninth 😤

⚾ First Florida walk-off homer in the NCAA Tournament since 2018
⚾ Has now won its opening game in 18 of 20 home regionals
⚾ 2nd NCAA Tournament game with 5+ home runs since BBCOR bats were adopted in 2011

A doubleheader on opening night of college hoops on Nov. 2 at the Benchmark Arena in Tampa will feature Florida vs. Miami followed by Florida State vs. Florida A&M.

Florida A&M is coached by former Florida State two-sport star Charlie Ward. It will also be the first meeting between the two teams since The Backyard Brawl was played in 1991 (Ward played in that game).

I’m told that Florida coach Todd Golden was instrumental in putting this event together.

A news conference to officially announce the event will be held Monday in Tampa.
