Gamecocks vs Oklahoma elimination game in 2010 was much more clutch. Down to their final strike to claw back. What makes it more impactful is South Carolina was 1 strike away from not winning a national title. They rallied through losers and started the biggest win streak in CWS history. Believe it’s 24? Went undefeated through regionals, supers, and cws the next year. A record that will likely never be broken.

[@AzureBard]

Thing I have to say about the questionable call is that the batter hit in the tying runs. You can still get the third out and go into extra innings and win it. It's like that pass interference no-call in the Rams-Saints NFC Championship Game. Saints still kicked the FG to go up by three with under two minutes to go. They couldn't keep the Rams from tying in regulation. They got the ball first in overtime. They turned it over instead of driving it down the field to win it. They couldn't stop the Rams again to kick the winning FG. Believe me, I wanted to see Brees vs. Brady in the Superbowl, instead, we got the SnoozeBowl. But you can't blame the Saints lose on that call. It was within their capabilities to overcome that obstacle. Back to this situation, get that third out, score some runs on the top of the 10th and shut door in the bottom of the 10th.
