Auburn University and UCF’s NCAA regional baseball game has been delayed for the second time due to weather, rescheduling the start to 4:06 p.m. CT after originally planning a 2 p.m. CT kickoff. The teams, both top seeds in the regional, were forced to pause play for nearly two hours earlier in the day, with the latest delay announced just 10 minutes before the adjusted start time. The matchup marks the first meeting between Auburn and UCF this weekend, with both teams advancing through their regional brackets. Auburn lost its opening game to Milwaukee but defeated NC State on Saturday to advance to Sunday’s championship game. UCF, meanwhile, beat NC State in its regional opener before falling to Auburn in a 13-6 upset on Saturday night. The winner of the Auburn-UCF game will face Milwaukee in a rematch at 7 p.m. CT, with the potential for a second game on Monday if necessary. Auburn must defeat Milwaukee twice to claim the regional title, while UCF would need to secure a victory to avoid an elimination match. The teams’ performance in this game will determine their path forward in the tournament, with stakes rising as the regional final approaches. Weather remains a critical factor, as delays continue to disrupt the schedule.
