Auburn baseball felt invincible entering the College World Series after demolishing its regional opponents then eliminating the No. 3 overall seed on the road.
It took an SEC West underdog to bring the Tigers back down to earth.
Auburn’s 5-1 loss to Ole Miss was always within reach but rarely felt like it. Scoring was burden. Now Auburn (42-21) faces elimination Monday (1 p.m. CT, ESPN) against second-seeded Stanford (47-17), a juggernaut offense that ran into a wall against Arkansas in a 17-2 loss.
Auburn and Stanford have met four times in the College World Series. The Tigers have lost all four.
They’ll try to reverse that trend in their second elimination game of this NCAA Tournament. Follow along for live score updates and analysis here.
