The Kentucky Wildcats are set to face off against the Texas A&M Aggies in their second game of the College World Series on Monday night at 6:00 p.m. CT/7:00 p.m. ET. This matchup will take place in the winner’s bracket, while Florida and NC State will be competing in the loser’s bracket.
Texas A&M secured their spot in the winner’s bracket by defeating Florida 3-2 on Saturday night. This win sets them up for a showdown with Kentucky in the College World Series. Although the Aggies have made eight appearances in the College World Series, they have never won an NCAA Championship.
In their opening game of the CWS, Kentucky found themselves trailing 4-3 heading into the ninth inning against NC State. However, a solo home run by Ryan Nicholson tied the game in the ninth, and a walk-off solo home run by Mitch Daly in the 10th secured Kentucky’s first-ever victory in the College World Series.
The last time these two teams faced off was in 2023 when the Aggies won the series 2-1 in College Station. Texas A&M currently holds a 13-8 lead in the all-time series between the two teams.
Stay tuned for a more detailed preview of Monday’s matchup.
