The Texas Longhorns take on the Tennessee Volunteers in an elimination game at TD Ameritrade Park in Omaha at 1 p.m. Central on ESPNU.
The loser heads home early from the College World Series, with the Longhorns attempting to avoid a second straight exist from college baseball’s biggest stage after only two games.
Texas suffered a disappointing 2-1 defeat against Mississippi State on Sunday evening amid a flurry of strikeouts and a ninth-inning rally that fell short. Tennessee, meanwhile, dropped a 6-0 game to Virginia as the powerful Volunteer bats went silent.
