After an exciting Day 1 saw walkoff wins for both Oklahoma and UCLA, Day 2 came with elimination stakes for four teams. No. 3 Florida was the first team to exit after No. 7 Tennessee scored seven times in the first inning and run-ruled the Gators 11-3 in five innings.
Two weeks ago, UCLA suffered its first loss of the season, falling to rival USC. On Sunday, Notre Dame, which replaced the Bruins atop the Associated Press rankings, lost a double-overtime thriller to NC State, which snapped the Irish's 19-game winning streak.
