2015 College World Series, Florida vs. Virginia game thread: For the upper hand

The winner of Monday's Florida-Virginia game will occupy the most advantageous position in all of the College World Series.

For Florida and Virginia, Monday night's meeting in the winners' bracket of their side of the College World Series draw (~10 p.m., ESPN2 or WatchESPN) is a fight for the upper hand in the tournament.

For the winner, just like in the regionals that happened two weeks ago, a victory means only one more win will be needed to advance to the next round of competition. There's an added bonus this time, too: The winning team doesn't get just a few extra hours on the third day of a regional off, but three days off between Monday's game and Friday's clash with the team that emerges from the losers' bracket.
