UVA is on to Omaha. If I'm counting right, the ACC is 6-1 so far in the super regionals. FSU is through as well. UNC could clinch tonight. Only Clemson has a loss.

Shows how good the SEC is that Florida was .500 going into regionals and now they’re going to Omaha.

If I'm reading this right, it looks like the final 8 teams include 3 ACC and 4 SEC. And there's one game today to decide the 8th spot ... and it's between an ACC and SEC team.

Forgot Peyton’s honky ass went to Tennessee until they interviewed him then realized I can’t root for Tennessee then realized Florida State fans still do the Tomahawk Chop
And now I’m left rooting for a meteor.

Same type of entitled dickholes that chant USA after a Northern Irish golfer misses a 3 foot putt at the US Open.

Idiocracy.

From the comments:
This story is leaving out a key piece of information. The Aggy fans were “heckling” Coach O’Sullivan about a 10 year old UF batboy who was killed by his father (along with the rest of the family) in a grotesque murder suicide. Stay classy aTm.
So even worse than it seemed?

The Twitter replies to this were gross. Basically blaming the coach for the murder since he had an affair with the mother, who is now his wife.

The Aggie coach leaving for UT after losing his mind at a reporter asking him about it is really funny to me just because of the parties involved. Anything that pisses off the most delusional and weird fanbase in sports is alright by me.

I feel like Michigan State and Texas A&M fans need some kind of joint support group.

Five HBP and nothing more than a double is pretty insane too.

No exaggeration but the laws of BABIP seem to dictate even if you had an average HS pitcher up there throwing strikes it would be impossible to score that many runs in an inning.

In other words 8 walks and 5 HBP in an inning are….suboptimal?
