Florida softball vs Oklahoma live score, updates, highlights from WCWS semifinal game
Florida softball pulled off one of the biggest wins at the 2024 Women’s College World Series Monday and it looks to do the same Tuesday.
Facing elimination for the third consecutive day with their season on the line, the No. 4 Gators played perhaps their best game yet in Oklahoma City as Tim Walton’s squad put up nine runs against the reigning three-time national champions No. 2 Oklahoma Monday handing the Sooners their first NCAA Tournament loss since 2022.
Freshman pitcher Keagan Rothrock was stellar once again, striking out four in her 26th complete game of the season. But the explosiveness of the Gators’ lineup was the main storyline of Monday’s 9-3 victory for Florida. Skylar Wallace went 2-for-4 at the plate driving in three runs on two home runs in the contest while centerfielder Kendra Falby hit the first inside-the-park home run in the WCWS since 2014, on top of her run-saving catch in the second inning.

However, beating college softball’s Goliath back-to-back days won’t be an easy feat for Florida as only two teams have handed Oklahoma back-to-back losses this season: No. 1 Texas and No. 5 Oklahoma State. Texas punched its ticket to the championship series with a 1-0 win over Stanford Monday.
If Florida can pull out another win on Tuesday against the Sooners, it will face the Longhorns in the WCWS best-of-three championship series which begins on Wednesday, June 5 at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN. It would be the first WCWS championship series the Gators have advanced to since finishing runner-up to Oklahoma in 2017.

Oklahoma Sooners 2026 Football Schedule Revealed
The Oklahoma Sooners are trying to finish the 2025 college football season with a championship run that begins with a first-round playoff matchup with the Alabama Crimson Tide on Dec. 19 in Norman. After a 10-2 season, the Sooners found out during the SEC schedule reveal when they’ll play their 2026 opponents.
New to the SEC schedule this year is a nine-game conference slate. Also, Oklahoma will begin at least a four-year stretch with permanent rivals Texas, Missouri, and Ole Miss.
The Sooners open the season with nonconference matchups against UTEP, Michigan, and New Mexico. Michigan will be breaking in a new head coach after the surprising dismissal of Sherrone Moore.
Oklahoma will go on the road for their first conference game, taking on the defending SEC champion Georgia Bulldogs on Sept. 26. That marks the first time the Sooners will play in Athens for the first time in the history of the program. The Bulldogs own the only win in the series, which came in the infamous 2017 Rose Bowl. If the Sooners were to play the Dawgs in the 2025 College Football Playoff, it would come in the national championship game.
After the trip to Georgia, Oklahoma will have its only bye week of the season before facing the Texas Longhorns in the Red River Showdown on Oct. 10 in the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas. The Sooners will return home to play the Kentucky Wildcats on Oct. 17. Kentucky will have a first-time head coach in Will Stein, leading the Wildcats to Norman for the first time since 1980.
Then, Oklahoma will go to Starkville to take on former offensive coordinator Jeff Lebby and the Mississippi State Bulldogs on Oct. 24 before closing the month welcoming another former assistant in Shane Beamer and the South Carolina Gamecocks on Oct. 31.
Then begins the month that will decide the Sooners’ College Football Playoff fates. They’ll open November with a road trip to the Swamp to take on the Florida Gators on Nov. 7. The last time the Sooners took on the Gators, Oklahoma earned a 55-20 win in the 2020 Alamo Bowl.
The Sooners will then return home on Nov. 14 to take on the Ole Miss Rebels in Norman for the second year in a row. Oklahoma lost a heartbreaker to the Rebels at the end of October, but that gave way to a magical November run that catapulted the Sooners into the College Football Playoff.
After the Rebels come to town, the Sooners will welcome the Texas A&M Aggies on Nov. 21. Texas A&M hasn’t been to Norman since a 41-25 win by Oklahoma. Landry Jones threw for 255 yards and two touchdowns, and Blake Bell ran for two scores out of the Belldozer package.
The Sooners will then close the season on the road against the Missouri Tigers. The former Big 8 and Big 12 foes have split their two contests as members of the SEC, each team winning at home. Oklahoma owns a decisive 68-25-5 record over the Tigers dating back to 1902.
There will be big expectations for the Sooners coming off of a 10-2 season and a College Football Playoff berth. They’ll bring back a lot of talent from this year’s roster, but 2026 will provide new challenges.
