Are you certain? Is this coming from the AD? I just sprung for a parking pass for game 4.... Oh well, I should find a fat cat horn fan that will take it off my hands....

Just posted by WBIR. But they also previously posted that game would be on Saturday!

ESPN also stated 2pm Sunday vs UVA. Ms State (or Irish) play Texas Sunday night.

The other bracket plays their two games Saturday.

Arizona should give Vandy a good game

I step away from the forum yesterday to go to the game, and it's taken off like kudzu Thanks to some super easy to use software, here's a tweet I took great pleasure in putting together this morning. We like being a home for some Vols each summer.

Yeah, I finally saw it confirmed during the MSU/Notre Dame broadcast. Thanks!

Weather Channel has Omaha, Nebraska weather Sunday as 41% chance of thunderstorms and 14 mph SW wind. Sooooo, if the game is delayed from 2 pm due to lightning in the area, would they delay both games? Anyone know what the weather procedure is for CWS? I hope we get the game in on time. I also hope that SW wind carries a boatload of our homers over the fence and we win in a rout. When is the game between Miss State/ND vs Texas and the final game against Vanderbilt? A SW wind at that stadium would come from behind the right side stands across the field exiting the left side. Basically a cross wind.
"Forecaster uncertainty remains high in the later periods (weekend) but the trend does look cooler and a bit more wet."

Tennessee with the 2nd best odds to win the National Title. Oh boy. Never in a million years did I see this at the start of the season. Getting to Omaha is incredible, but hey now that we're here let's do the damn thing.

No Jinxing.

Whatever it takes to get as many Vol fans inside the stadium at 2 PM Sunday.

No Jinxing.

damn! You lost control!

I am amped up for this. I watched the win over UVA in a close 1991 Sugar Bowl. I have three cousins who went to or graduated from UVA so it is personal. Arkansas is out. Three games of focused and determined effort from this team with guts headed for glory....you can do this. Go Big Orange!

Since Texas is a higher seed do they get any advantage like batting second?

 

[87&91ALUM]

I was there. Drove home to Tennessee after the game. Go Vols! Miss State beat Notre Dame. Looks like Miss State vs Texas in the night game Sunday. We got this! Go Vols!

 

[Crossvilleman]

That's what we "think" but even John Wilkerson said on post game show that this is not set in stone.
ESPN may wish to flip the dates on the bracket- common sense be damned
Recall they will start a west coast or mountain time NFL playoff game at 1:00 pm but make the Patriots on East Coast play at night in 20 below weather because of ratings only. Fans and teams be damned.

In other words, it's possible that they may call the Vols' bracket #1. The NCAA has been careful not to say which side of bracket is #1 and which is #2 because of their TV partners having a say on game times.

This will not happen and the bracket, dates, and times are set. ESPN does not consider Saturday game more valuable than Sunday Games.

No!! The National Seeds get home field in the first game then it is Coin flips determines home field then as the CWS moves along it’s teams that have not been home twice in a row get automatic home field unless 2 met then it is coin flip again. PS: Tennessee is NOT playing Texas. They play Virginia.

Also rainouts and rain delays will be played a full game even if those games are suspended. So sometimes 3 and 4 games are played on one day instead of the normal 2. If all the Saturday games are rained out then it’s 4 Sunday games played.
