Jakarta Aktual – 18 June 2026 | The College World Series has been filled with thrilling matchups, but none have been as captivating as the one between the University of North Carolina and the Oklahoma Sooners. The Tar Heels, led by coach Scott Forbes, have been on a tear, dominating their opponents with a fierce determination that has left fans in awe. But, as the team prepares to face off against the Sooners in the best-of-three finals, one thing is certain: the underdog story of the season has been Oklahoma’s, and UGA baseball fans are left to wonder what could have been.
Oklahoma’s journey to the finals has been nothing short of remarkable. From being a bubble team toward the end of the regular season to defying the odds and powering their way to the finals, the Sooners have proven themselves to be a force to be reckoned with. And on Wednesday night, they took on the No. 3 Georgia Bulldogs, hitting five home runs in an 11-4 victory that left fans stunned.
Dasan Harris was the star of the show, smacking two homers and driving in five runs. Jason Walk added two solo homers, and Trey Gambill had a two-run shot as part of his four-hit, three-RBI game for Oklahoma. The Sooners’ Nick Wesloski put together a strong performance on the mound, allowing just one earned run in 5.2 innings pitched.
But, as Oklahoma prepares to face off against the Tar Heels in the finals, one thing is clear: the Sooners have the chemistry and determination to take on all comers. And with their five home runs against the Bulldogs, they’ve proven that they’re not to be underestimated. Will the Tar Heels be able to take on the challenge and claim the national championship, or will Oklahoma’s historic run continue? Only time will tell.
