The Florida Gators captured the College World Series title on Sunday night with a 6–1 win over the LSU Tigers to sweep the best-of-three series.

I’ll acknowledge it. I didn’t watch it nor am I a fan of the Gators, they have a program that is hard to beat.

Congratulations.

Congrats....I know my UConn has a great baseball team. Florida’s baseball team doesn’t have thugs on it, or at least I don’t hear of any of the. In trouble.

You typed UCONN by mistake. I’m a huge college sports fan and have literally heard no one ever suggest they have a great baseball team.

Go GATORS! What a great year. Third national championship this year I believe.

67 days until football season.

My favorite moment in University of Florida college sports history: the year both the men's basketball team and college football team won national championships--against THE Ohio State University.
