CWSâ LSU-Florida Game 1 live stream (6/24): How to watch Omaha online, TV, time
It’s an all-SEC affair when LSU and Florida meet in Game 1 of the best-of-three championship for the College World Series in Omaha on Saturday, June 24. The series will be live streamed on fuboTV (free trial).
With LSU and Florida playing in the series opening Saturday night, the SEC is assured of winning its fourth straight national title — by four different teams. Fifteen of the last 33 champions will have come from the SEC, including nine of the last 14.
Fourteen of the last 15 finals, in fact, will have included at least one SEC team.
Florida (53-15) is only the fourth team since 1976 to win three straight one-run games in bracket play to make the finals.
LSU (52-16), the No. 5 national seed, lost its second game and had to stave off elimination three times to set up a rematch of the 2017 finals, which the Gators won for their first, and only, national title in baseball.
LSU is playing for its seventh national championship, which would rank second to Southern California’s 12. The Tigers’ most recent title was in 2009.
The Tigers and Gators didn’t face each other in the regular season, and they didn’t run into each other in the SEC Tournament. This will be their first meeting since LSU won two of three in Gainesville, Florida, in March 2022. LSU leads the all-time series 66-52-1.
When is LSU-Florida Game 1?
LSU and Florida face off in Omaha in Game 1 of the championship series of the CWS at 6 p.m. (7 p.m. ET) on Saturday, June 24.
