#4 Florida vs #2 Oklahoma Softball Highlights, 2024 NCAA World Series Game 13

[@apackperday]

The 3B for OU is really, really good. Props to all of these women.

[@damienbell3155]

Yah Brito is a gem, got her in 22’ from Oregon

[@paulguthrie4857]

WHAT A GAME ! ! ! Thanks Matt!!

[@SteveCape-n6s]

No matter the score no matter the opponent OU is NEVER out of a game until the very last pitch !! Over their 3 championship dynasty run SO FAR there is play after play after play in so many of their games that not only defines themselves but the game itself!!! SOONER for LIFE !!!!

[@MJ-pk4gh]

Florida is damn good and they have been for a while. Something tells me OU will have a lot of new rivals when we start playing in the SEC because we've been battling them for years. It's gonna be fun. And for the record, I would've rooted for Florida against Texas.

[@amandarodriguez1605]

Yes yes Florida really balled out I was pleasantly surprised

[@bradleycarroll8187]

Every game we have played against them in softball is a nail bitter be one excellent rivalry in softball

[@clintezell3298]

WALK WITH PRIDE GATORS!!!!! YOU FOUGHT ALL THE WAY !!!!! GO SOOOOONERRRSSSS!!!!!!!

[@azaviankennon1235]

Yeaaa Jada show them this run isn’t over just yet🏆🏆🏆?🏆 Texas here we come

[@christianjakoi3941]

This was the game of the WCWS. Such a good fight by the lady gators! I called the walk off home run!

[@damienbell3155]

Jayda is some kind of special, all those SR are,,,, they all have been doing this for past 4 yrs, there’s no quitting in them,,,,,,, that has to be one of the best WCWS games ever. That Florida team was on point. But the OU players pushed through and ela Parker wow

[@jerrycaughman6324]

Goodness look in the dictionary under locked in and you would find Brito. Her fielding was off the charts.

[@amberbrown6001]

It was so good!

[@danastanbery9455]

The Florida Gators are one hell of a team, Rothrock was amazing and is a star. Congrats Sooners the next National Champions. Great game ladies, you never give up.

[@larryknowles2802]

Rothrock is a beast on the mound ! OU were lucky! If she gets the bats to back her up they are moving on! Lookout for her next year. And I’m an OU fan but more importantly I’m a softball fan. ALL OF THESE PLAYERS ARE AWESOME!

​@Yourfav_BrookieeLucky??? Fl was lucky to even be there, go home gater 😂😂

[@larryknowles2802]

@@BubbahotepEagle sometimes the breaks or luck is in your favour! Florida is a very good team as are others. All of These players should be congratulated for what they put on the field ! I love this game 💜💜

[@nicholaskatsikas4904]

The Score of the game doesn’t reflect how well Oklahoma played. They had 12 hits to Florida’s 4 but the difference for a lot of the game is that the Florida hits were homers and Oklahoma couldn’t get hits with runners in scoring position. That is something to monitor as they now face the best offense in the country in Texas

[@robertjones5250]

A lot of base runners stranded. Gotta get those runners in #beattexas

[@bradleycarroll8187]

That has been our biggest issue this year is leaving runners in scoring position

[@Bird-dl7xs]

10 left on

[@damienbell3155]

Yah they beat them in the big 12 championship wasn’t even close. I think OU will be alright 👍. But great game

[@CjJohnWynn]

Might miss not having Erickson next year when kenzie finally retires. That girl went and balled out.

[@bradleycarroll8187]

I'm sure the GOAT already has a plan for Kinzie being gone after this year

[@Oklahoma_Rider]

Oklahoma has one of the most insane recruiting classes of all time coming in for 2025. One of the players being Kendall Wells the #1 catcher in her class and a top 5 overall prospect. I wouldn’t be shocked if she starter day 1 if they don’t add a transfer.

[@sportgeek2028]

@@Oklahoma_Rider Corri Hicks look/sounds like a baller catcher from 2024 class that is committed to Oklahoma

[@ronaldlamascus1944]

Erickson had her chance and could have still been with us this year. She chose to move on and is doing well at Florida and Nugent also left for Tennessee. Now both of them get to watch instead of play in the World Series finals!

[@BubbahotepEagle]

Nah , Erickson is good but there's always someone better and Patty got her, #1 catcher in the nation.

[@TheDaringPastry1313]

Really tense game for us OU fans and props to Rothrock, but 👋 See ya later Gators

[@cicada9471]

Until next season. Hopefully you guys come to Gainesville for the conference game. Go Gators

Just when everybody thought the beast was slayed and OUr Queens was done Jayda says yeah not today

[@jalenwillis2605]

Congrats to Oklahoma I hate to see Florida lose they had a good season it's sad to see the seniors on Florida was their last game hats off to the seniors at Florida I hope you ladies will become players professional women's softball league

[@AutoBahnLG]

This game had me STRESSED!! Congrats to these women. What a game!

[@chelseathomas6614]

Ms. Rothrock had a year no other Florida pitcher has had in 10 years.. unbelievable so glad she’s around for 3 more.. OU is not unbeatable, love when teams go out and aren’t scared to play them

[@bradleycarroll8187]

Part of the problem the power hitting is gone the intimidation factor isn't as bad as it use to be those 3 title teams had all of it. Those 7 losses we had could have been wins had we not left runners in scoring position. In order to beat OUr Queens you have to beat them at their own game. And now everybody is finally catching up to us

[@arcyhicks8335]

​@@bradleycarroll8187True. This isn't one of Gassos' more dominant line-ups. Unlike the previous 3 they don't consistently hit for power 1 through 9. But, just like the previous 3 their OBP 1T9 is off the charts. While stranding alot of runners is a legit concern, they are consistently getting on base. Which puts pressure on opossing pitchers and defenses. For most of the season they've been able to use early missed opportunities to create later opportunities. The pitchers have struggled, but just like the offense, they've been able to bear down and close out strong. Finding ways to get around and overcome deficiencies is the hallmark of this team. I've had a lot of fun watching these kids navigate through this season. And win or lose, no one can question their hearts. 🎉

[@TeamGAJU]

this is the best game in 2024 world series so far

Brito Is so solid at third base. She will be very, very difficult to replace. ROCK ON SOONERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@robertjones5250]

Instant Classic!

[@Leoforever79]

Gators did an excellent job. For a Freshmen pitcher to come to Oklahoma pitch day after day. Do that well with a defense and gators hitting. They just didn't have enough to them. Oklahoma has a lot of seniors as well. That experience says a lot. Next year will be interesting.

[@ronaldlamascus1944]

We own Texas! 4peat!!

[@sabirperry1446]

I didn't like how she didn't let Jada shake hands with Florida just went straight to let me interview you. Like hold on for 1min dang

[@ChunkyLover420]

Was so looking forward to OU finally ending their run, but it wasn’t meant to be… The difference was definitely the consistent hitting from Oklahoma while the gators fell off towards the end of the game

[@MattHighlightsNo.2]

Thank you very much Glover for your continuous support from my old channel to new channel. I really appreciated it.

[@robertcurry7860]

What a game!!!! Both SPs Maxwell for Oklahoma and Rothrock for Florida did not pitch that well, each giving up too many runs and it came down to which pitcher would throw a bad pitch and thankfully, it wasn't Maxwell. Kudos to OU starting pitcher Kelly Maxwell, going the distance for 7 innings and keeping her teammates in the game even though giving up 5 runs. I don't think, if OU pitchers Nicole May and Kiersten Deal were brought in at anytime, The Lady Sooners probably would have lost because May and Deal, also did not pitch well yesterday vs. Florida. What a violent collision between Florida SS Skylar Wallace and OU DP (hitter) Ella Parker at Second Base. Thanks be to Jesus, neither Wallace nor Parker were seriously hurt in the collision. The Lady Sooners finally woke up the bats BUT...... an alarming note for OU, they are still leaving way too many women on base in scoring position. OU cannot do that against the dreaded Longhorns in Game #1 of the Best of three WCWS Final (starts tomorrow night at 8pm EST) and have any chance at winning the National Championship. #BoomerSooner G🥎 🥎U! Thanks Matt, for the marvelous highlights. 😏👍👍

マットさんありがとう！

[@garyhughes2446]

After seeing the difference in the Sooners play from game one to game two, it made me sane that the sooner is real team stayed on the bus for game one. Parker, Pickering and Hodge all came up huge in the second game. If you take Sid Sanders out of the game, you lose the best first baseman in college Softball. It's just my observation. I may be wrong but I think others would agree that sooners are leaving a lot more runners on base than usual. I don't believe that will carry water well at all against Texas. We better not have all the walks that we had the first part of game one against the Gators those usually turn into free runs. BOOMER SOONER !!!!!!!!!!!

[@roxyscott1253]

Time stamp : 13:04 Tough call. To me there was both Obstruction AND foul play. What kind of slide was that. I've been watching these games , these girls know how to slide very well. At 13:04 you see it the best. To me it looks like she KNEW she was gunned. The runners body not only stayed up, but tilted right- right into the glove arm. Throwing both arms and ending with a headbutt to a much smaller girl. Here's the MLB rules on sliding into second. "The slide rule prohibits runners from using a "roll block" or attempting to initiate contact with the fielder by elevating and kicking his leg above the fielder's knee, throwing his arm or his upper body or grabbing the fielder. When a violation of the slide rule occurs, the offending runner and the batter-runner will be called out." Throwing her arm or her upper body. It was obstruction. It was also foul play. And since not being injured is so important AND she was gunned and this is not the MLB but women's ball. I feel like that was the wrong call. Could've fractured Skylars arm. Any umpires in here who ump at this level and know the rules much better than me have any input?

[@aBeatleFan4ever]

The umpire called obstruction on the SS. The collision was caused by the SS being in the wrong place (which is why obstruction was called). If anyone had been injured it would have been because of the SS. Take off your Florida colored glasses and see the play for what it was.

[@OkieMikester]

JAYDAAAA!!! ☝🏼❤️‍🔥🥎🏆

[@greggnunnelee7650]

Florida made them work for it. not as dominate as last year. texas will make ou work for it

[@jonathanjones4670]

any other pitcher would have been taken out of the game if 2 or 3 homers was hit off her but P. G. left Maxwell in the game, may & Deal are just as good if not better then maxwell.

[@David-ut1xj]

On the game winning home run the left fielder should have turn her body the other way to try to catch the ball instead of trying to catch the ball backhanded. Also she needs to learn how to jump. She looked awkward.

[@marksauce2383]

Gotta move fences back. 20 feet should do. Mound too. At least 5 ft. Move bases accordingly.

[@gregsudol5986]

Sounds like a great idea. Right when the sport is booming in popularity lets make things even more challenging for the hitter to prevent scoring.

[@arcyhicks8335]

I've been saying the same thing for yrs. These exit velocities are just wicked. Even though I'm a guy, I don't think I'd have the guts to pitch to these girls without body armor. Earlier this season, I saw a shortstops' glove get yanked off her hand by a caught linedrive. It ended up landing close to ten ft. behind her.

[@lionheart4529]

Amen. Thank you. And also stop having home field advantage in Oklahoma City. It’s getting annoying. No one pays attention to the cheating for the past 3 years with this team. I say drug test after they cheat for this 4th title win. They are gonna rig it so much against Texas that I may not even watch the game. I can smell the Umps having their hands all over this for a OU 4th title run. 😢🤦‍♂️🤡

[@timpowers5267]

I wonder if people would want to move the men’s series from traditional Omaha if the Cornhuskers dominated the MCWS? There are a lot of regulation base ball stadiums but not many softball stadiums to hold the growing fan base, only OKC and OKC does it best for softball fans. It just happens that the Sooners dominate, no drugs like the weak whiners say, just great coaches and players. Texas has the team to beat this year are they on drugs too? What a weak position to take…

[@arcyhicks8335]

​@@gregsudol5986 For me, it's a safety issue. As strong and fast as these young ladies are, you can expand the field a few ft. without losing the potential for exciting high scoring games. A few years ago, college baseball deadened the bats to reduce the exit velocity. Well, they're still knocken em outa the park. The difference is that now when they hit a homer, you're not standing there thinking "OMG, where the heck did that ball go?!" 😳 And there are far less instances of pitchers nearly getting their heads taken off.

[@reaper12b15]

It’s funny because I was thinking this ENTIRE game how Jada Coleman was struggling at the plate which damn near NEVER HAPPENS! So, I said to myself(not lying but obviously can’t prove it) that Coleman was not only due for her first hit of the game, but will walk it off with a HR;)! Of all the woman’s sports & from every level(lowest/youngest-professional), college softball is without a doubt my favorite to watch! To be completely honest, it’s quite difficult for me to sit, watch & enjoy MOST female sports, rendering skill levels (youngest-professional) completely irrelevant!
