Who are some of the stars that I should look out for in the 2023 College World Series?

The LSU Tigers and the Florida Gators both have some incredible talent throughout their rosters that will make these CWS finals intriguing.

On the Tigers' side of things, center fielder Dylan Crews and starting pitcher Paul Skenes are two of the top names projected to be taken in the 2023 MLB draft by the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Washington Nationals respectively.

Skenes will likley not find the mound after pitching in the win-or-go-home game on Thursday against the top-seeded Wake Forest Demon Deacons.

Tommy "Tanks" White was the reason LSU advanced as he hit the walk-off two-run homer in the 11th inning for a 2-0 win over Wake Forest.

On the Florida side, the Gators' offense is led by Jac Caglianone as he is one of the biggest power hitters in the game. Out of the bullpen is one of the top relievers in Brandon Neely, who appeared in all three games in the bracket round.

This is one of the bigger CWS finals in the last handful of years so this will be interesting.

The two Southeastern Conference teams met in the championship series in 2017, with Florida winning its only national title. LSU has won six national championships, the last of which came in 2009.
