FSU softball vs. Oklahoma: Preview, how to watch, live updates
Florida State softball swept its way through the Tallahassee Regional, taking down Chattanooga, UCF and Auburn.
Now, they will face a familiar face in the No. 2 Oklahoma Sooners.
Oklahoma is 52-6 overall, and 22-5 in the Big 12 conference. Softball fans will notice that the Sooners have lost more games than usual but are still the same dominant force they always have been. Their first loss came to Louisiana in extra innings, and since then they have dropped series to Texas and Oklahoma State, with another loss to BYU. In their Norman Regional, they took wins against Cleveland State and Oregon.

During this time, she has 72 H, 33 R, 42 BB, 127 SO and a .170 B/AVG. Nicole May has been a staple in the OU pitching staff for 5 years, and is now one of the top arms.

Baby Gronk Flips Commitment to Oregon After Washington, Oklahoma Pledges

Baby Gronk’s “commitment” carousel continued on Saturday.
The 11-year-old social media sensation took to X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, to claim that he was flipping his commitment to Oregon.
This comes after he had announced his commitment to various schools, including Washington, Oklahoma, Minnesota, Alabama and Georgia.
Of course, none of these are true commitments, as a scholarship offer can not be offered officially until a player has reached his junior year of high school. Baby Gronk, who’s real name is Madden San Miguel, is years short of this mark.
He has seemingly “committed” to the the majority of the Power 5 schools at this point, so it will be interesting to see if he looks toward Group of 5 programs and non-FBS programs in the near future.
