Georgia Bulldogs advance to College World Series with two wins over Mississippi State
Summary

The No. 3 Georgia Bulldogs secured their spot in the College World Series after winning both games against No. 14 Mississippi State in the Athens Super Regional. Georgia triumphed 13-12 on Friday and 11-9 on Sunday, eliminating the Bulldogs from contention. With three of the top eight national seeds eliminated, the upcoming College World Series field is viewed as wide open. The Texas Longhorns, currently leading in their Austin Super Regional against No. 11 Oregon, will face a challenging opponent if they advance, due to the lack of reseeding following the super regionals. Texas needs another victory over Oregon to keep their hopes alive.
