O’Gara: Kentucky is the only SEC program without a trip to Omaha. Why luck could finally be on the Cats’ side Saturday Down South
—
There’s no time quite like the present for Kentucky baseball. This is the golden era. That can’t be denied.
On Saturday at 6 p.m. ET, Kentucky will host a Super Regional for the first time in program history. Including last season and 2017, the Cats have 3 Super Regional appearances in the Nick Mingione era. That’s quite the feat for a program that had 6 NCAA Tournament appearances (and 0 Super Regional berths) before his arrival. Even if UK gets bounced in 2 games by Oregon State, history has already been made by having Omaha up for grabs in Lexington this weekend.
