The 2015 College World Series has already fostered a number of compelling plot twists that determined how Tuesday's schedule ultimately shook out.
LSU hails from the SEC, touted as the best conference in the nation, and is the top-ranked team in the country. No one must have told TCU before its Omaha opener, because the Horned Frogs trounced the Tigers 10-3 to move into the winner's bracket.
In Tuesday's first game, Cal State Fullerton will face off with LSU for the right to keep its national championship dreams alive.
A number of reasons could be utilized to explain why the Titans aren't moving forward to battle TCU instead. With all the momentum in its previous contest, Mother Nature took matters into her own hands, as a rain delay disrupted the Titans' rhythm as they led Vanderbilt 3-0 in the sixth inning.
