Texas A&M (14-14, 1-8 SEC) will face No. 1 Tennessee (27-2, 8-1 SEC) at Lindsey Nelson Stadium in Knoxville, Tenn. search of their second SEC starting on Friday night.
Barring a miracle, the Aggies' post-season odds are incredibly slim, and just a single win in this series, along with two other hard-fought games, could give the team some much-needed momentum as they head into the second half of SEC play. Gavin Kash is out, possibly for the series, and will be replaced by Blake Binderup. Kash has been a major upgrade defensively at first base, limiting a majority of the unforced errors at the position.
These teams have met 24 times, with the series tied at 12 apiece. The most memorable games were last season's three-game College World Series matchup where A&M took the first game before ultimately losing the last two. Two months ago, this was one of the top games to watch in college baseball. Now, with the struggles A&M is facing, it's turned into just another series Tennessee should win on their way back to Omaha.
Below is all the information for the series:
