Florida wins 2017 College World Series vs. LSU in a game not without controversy

Related Topics: Florida

The University of Florida has won the College World Series, securing the first national title in baseball in the history of the school. It's rather surprising that this was the first title, given that Florida has won 13 SEC championships and appeared in 11 College World Series, but 2017 was the first time the Gators achieved the ultimate goal.

The final score was 6-1 (NCAA.com box score), as coach Kevin O'Sullivan saw his group accomplish what his 2011 Gators failed to do: come through in the CWS championship series.

Tuesday's clincher certainly had its fair share of tense moments.
