The College World Series in Omaha is reaching its peak as Tennessee and Texas A&M face off for the national championship. The game is set to begin at 7:09 Eastern time on ESPN, and the anticipation is building for what promises to be an exciting matchup.

Tennessee, the top-seeded team, is looking to secure its first-ever national championship in college baseball. The Volunteers have put up impressive numbers throughout the season, including a record-breaking five players hitting 20 or more home runs. Christian Moore leads the pack with an impressive 33 home runs.

Despite their success, Tennessee has struggled with runners in scoring position, batting just .121 in those situations during the championship series against Texas A&M.

The Vols will need to bring their A-game to match LSU's single-season NCAA record of 188 home runs. They are also aiming to end a 15-year championship drought for the university, with their last national title coming in women's indoor track & field in 2009.

As the game kicks off in Omaha, the temperature is expected to soar to 99 degrees, adding to the intensity of the matchup. Tennessee will look to add to their impressive victory total of 225 since the start of the 2020 season, as they aim to secure their spot in college baseball history.
