Florida’s second Gainesville Regional game against Miami was pushed back 2 hours and will start at 8 p.m. Saturday.
The change was triggered after Miami’s game against Troy ended at 1:53 a.m.; NCAA rules require at least a 12-hour gap when a regional game runs past 1 a.m. local time.
Saturday’s revised schedule now has Troy facing Rider in an elimination game at 3 p.m., followed by Florida vs. Miami in the nightcap.
Florida enters at 40-19 after an 8-7 walk-off win over Rider, while Miami is 39-18 heading into the regional matchup.
After a grueling 2 a.m. victory, can the Miami Hurricanes defy fatigue to challenge their well-rested rivals, the Florida Gators?
As historic upsets and delays mark the tournament's start, is this chaos the new standard for the NCAA College World Series path?
