Tennessee and Texas A&M are ready to play for a national championship. The two SEC foes will clash in Game 1 of the 2024 College World Series on Saturday night.
The Volunteers — the tournament’s No. 1 overall seed — have showcased their mettle in Omaha, averaging more than eight runs per game in three CWS contests. That should hardly come as a surprise, as Tennessee leads the nation in several statistical categories, including runs and home runs.
The Aggies have enjoyed a successful NCAA Tournament, winning all eight of their tournament games to date. Texas A&M will counter Tennessee’s potent bats with sublime pitching: The Aggies’ 3.80 staff ERA ranks third lowest in the nation, and they have allowed just three runs through three games in Omaha.
Will that success continue against the likes of Christian Moore and Blake Burke? Tennessee’s 1-2 punch has combined to bat .500 with eight RBI through the first three CWS games.
The likes of Evan Aschenbeck (1.54 ERA in 70 IP) and Ryan Prager (2.88 ERA in 93.2 IP) will have their hands full.
We’ll get our first look a the chess match Saturday night. Here is everything you need to know about Game 1 of the 2024 CWS finals between Tennessee and Texas A&M.
