Baseball Preview: Missouri heads to Gainesville for showdown with Florida

Related Topics: Florida, Gainesville, Wyatt Langford

Florida has been absolutely fantastic on the diamond this year. They’re 32-10 (11-7) and ranked fourth in the country. The Gators were swept last weekend against No. 3 South Carolina, but that’s nothing to be ashamed of the way Ethan Petry and Co. are playing in Columbia East.

For Missouri, their toughest test since Vanderbilt couldn’t have at a worse time. The Tigers are fighting for their postseason lives and are in danger of missing the SEC tournament for the third consecutive season. A trip to Gainesville is about the last thing the doctor would order for a team whose season is on life support, but the Tigers have no choice, so it’s time to see what they’re made of.
