Oklahoma blasted No. 5 North Carolina 13-2 at Charles Schwab Field, turning a marquee College World Series matchup into a runaway behind an offense that simply refused to let the Tar Heels breathe.
The Sooners, now 43-23, put the game out of reach with a relentless offensive display that overwhelmed a North Carolina squad that arrived with a 54-14-1 record and championship expectations. Every inning felt like another wave, and the Tar Heels never found an answer.
For Oklahoma, this is the kind of statement performance that shifts the narrative in Omaha. The Sooners showed they can trade blows with anyone in the country, and that the stage isn't too big. North Carolina, meanwhile, faces a quick turnaround and must regroup fast to keep its season alive.
