00:00Now, to Omaha, the Men's College World Series. There were two
00:07elimination games scheduled for yesterday but one was postponed
00:12due to the weather in the All-SEC battle between Kentucky
00:15and Florida. In the All-ACC affair, in the opening game of
00:19the day, elimination on the line trying to keep their seasons
00:23afloat. That was Florida State and North Carolina and FSU is
00:28victorious. Nine to five victory over the Tar Heels.
00:31They were booked as a minus 132 Moneyline favorite and Donnie,
00:35my best bet yesterday was going against the trend that I tried
00:38to highlight entering the opening weekend in the big O at
00:42the CWS. Unders in a bigger ballpark. Seven of the first
00:45eight games under. Yesterday, elimination game. All hands on
00:50deck trying to keep their season and their state in Omaha
00:53alive and I said, no, no, no, no. We're going to see some
00:56offense. Total worked against me. I said over ten and a half.
00:59It drops to nine and a half before first pitch yesterday at
01:022 PM Eastern time and they still go over 14 combined runs
01:06between the Knowles and the Heels. Twenty-four hits as well.
01:10That's a pretty good game out of it but two teams that
01:12obviously know each other well from being in the ACC but again
01:15Ben, the question remains here in Omaha. Why do we only have
01:18now tell me why we only had one game yesterday. Can you make
01:20this more clear? Like why was Kentucky and Florida postponed?
01:24It was because of weather. I don't know how to brag now.
01:28They have a lot of like storms and go ahead. Hear me out. You
01:32play it. You play in LA. We're not worried about weather. You
01:35play this in Miami. They got a dome just in case of weather.
01:37Oh, we're not worried about weather in Miami. We are not
01:40worried about storm in southern Florida in the month of June.
01:44They got a dome. Craig Mischel coming to confirm that Miami
01:47plays in the dome. I'm going to say yes. They're going to play
01:50at the Marlins ballpark and kick them out for 10 days. Sold
01:55out and it would be sold out. The Marlins can't even sell at
01:58a home football game. Give me the mic. Let me go solo shot.
02:03Matt, put me on a solo shot. Mute his mic. Put me on a solo
02:07shot. Thank you, Matt. Let's talk about the actual College
02:10World Series where Omaha is historic for the CWS and an
02:15entire community rallies around a two-week event and by the way
02:19through six games, we have seen the highest TV audience
02:22numbers that we had ever seen at the men's College World Series.
02:26Florida State stays alive. This is their twenty-fourth
02:29appearance in the men's CWS but they have only made it to
02:33three College World Series finals and that in most
02:37recently was 1999. A nine to one number on FSU and for the
02:43first time, the number one national seed, Tennessee is
02:47booked as a minus money favorite at minus 125 because
02:52they will take on the Seminoles and Florida State has to beat
02:55Tennessee twice to get to the CWS finals in bracket pool one
03:00in bracket pool two. It's the elimination game early on this
03:04Wednesday. Some early morning baseball 11 AM Eastern Time.
03:09The Cats a minus 136 favorite. The total at eleven and a half
03:14for the game scheduled yesterday. Total was nine and a
03:18hook maybe even dropping to eight and a half. I think we go
03:22under here early in the morning despite what the total is
03:26telling you. That's right DRS. Don't say a word. Hour two up
03:30next here on the early.
