Tennessee vs. Florida State College World Series preview
The Tennessee Volunteers enter this game as the first-seeded team in college baseball. The team hit a phenomenal seven home runs in its Game 3 victory to reach Omaha for the third time in the past four years.
The Tony Vitello-coached Tennessee is the team to beat in Omaha, and they've been sensational all year. They're the only team to have finished with a 50-win regular season this year, and they won't be an easy nut to crack in Omaha.
On the other hand, there's Florida State. It also had an impressive collegiate baseball season. The program finished the regular season with a 42-15 record, which was good for the eighth seed heading into the business end of the season.
Florida State progressed to the Tallahassee Regional and qualified for the super regional after victories over Stetson and UCF. In the super regional, Florida State made light work of UConn, advancing after back-to-back wins.
In terms of experience, Florida State takes it as this is their 24th College World Series appearance compared to Tennessee's 7th appearance at the CWS.
However, it's the first time since 2019 that Florida State has made it this far, while Tennessee has been CWS regulars since the turn of the decade. It'll be a fascinating game in Omaha as two of the best teams in collegiate baseball slug it out.
