are headed to the women's College World Series. First up on the schedule is a matchup with the No. 8 seed Stanford Cardinal in Oklahoma City.coach Mike White previously indicated he doesn't appreciate having to play games in Oklahoma City, giving what he thinks is an advantage to local teams like Oklahoma.
“I’d love to see it rotate eventually, but probably not in my tenure as a coach,” he said. “We get it, but it is a huge advantage obviously for Oklahoma.” But a move is unlikely, and the Longhorns have to play in hostile territory. The two brackets in Oklahoma City consist of Texas, Florida, Oklahoma State and Stanford in Bracket 1 and Oklahoma, UCLA, Duke and Alabama in Bracket 2.
The two teams have met a total of seven times since 2006 including twice this season, where Texas and Stanford split the two meetings.
