all right, the burnt orange are in town for a 3-game series at Blue Bell Park...
for the first time in 34 years.
hard to believe it's been that long, but the split-series era lasted 20 seasons (1993-2012).
the sips won the series at Olsen in 1992 -- taking two of three. The Ags' last 3-game series win at Olsen was the year before -- the 1991 sweep. The sips last sweep at Olsen was 1985.
t.u. checks in at #2 in the polls. A series win by A&M would mark the highest ranked longhorn team ever beaten in a 3-game series -- per the media guide.
the 1993 and 2003 teams won series against #5 t.u. teams
updating...
so the Ags have now won three of the last four 3-game series played at BBP/Olsen: 1989, 1991, and 2026
Earley wins a series vs. t.u. in his second year. It took MJ until year 5 (1989) and Childress until year 7 (2012)
by clinching the series today, the 2026 squad now owns the mark for beating the highest-ranked t.u. team in a weekend series
