The road to another college baseball championship got longer for the Texas Longhorns Saturday night.
Florida beat the 'Horns, 8-4, in the opening round of the NCAA College World Series at TDAmeritrade Park in Omaha, Nebraska. Texas scored three times in the third inning to take an early 3-0 lead. Florida tied the game in the lead an inning later and never looked back.
The loss puts Texas in a precarious position. One more loss sends them back to Austin empty-handed. Their next game will be against North Carolina Monday afternoon.
