Texas A&M's Strategic Loss to Avoid Texas Matchup in NCAA Baseball Super Regional.
TL;DR Summary
Texas A&M purposely lost to Stanford in the postseason to avoid facing the Texas Longhorns in the upcoming season, as Texas is set to join the SEC next year. The Aggies' offense struggled in the 7-1 loss, wasting a solid outing from junior RHP Nathan Dettmer. Facing a much hotter Longhorns squad would have been an unneeded hassle, so sending them to Palo Alto to take on Stanford is the best insult the Aggies can provide.
