That side of the bracket is paired with the No. 7 Virginia/Duke, Oregon/Oral Roberts and No. 14 Indiana State/TCU Super Regionals in the College World Series.
This is both team’s first Super Regional since 2018 with the winner of this series off to the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska. Florida last made the College World Series in 2018, finishing in the CWS Semifinals.
The Gamecocks haven’t been back to Omaha since a run of three-straight appearances from 2010 to 2012. South Carolina obviously won two titles in 2010 and 2011 and finished as national runners-up to Arizona.
The No. 1 Wake Forest/No. 16 Alabama, No. 8 Stanford/Texas, No. 5 LSU/No. 12 Kentucky and Tennessee/Southern Miss Supers are on the other side of the bracket.
South Carolina is coming off a dominating sweep of the Columbia regional. The Gamecocks took care of Central Connecticut, NC State and Campbell relatively easily.
