Texas and Nebraska will meet in a win-or-go-home Women's College World Series game Sunday at 3 p.m. ET, with the loser heading home and the winner moving on to Monday's semifinals. The second-seeded Longhorns and fourth-seeded Cornhuskers are scheduled to play at Devon Park in Oklahoma City.

Texas arrives after blanking Mississippi State 4-0 on Friday, while Nebraska reached this round by beating Arkansas with a walk-off win before falling to Alabama in Saturday's winners' bracket game. Jordy Frahm gave up a three-run home run in the first inning against Alabama, a quick setback that sent Nebraska into elimination after it had opened Saturday with momentum.
The teams know each other better than most WCWS opponents. Texas and Nebraska split two games at the UTSA Invitational to start the season, and Sunday will be their third meeting of the year after a 14-season gap before they saw each other again. Texas is also the defending national champion, which gives the matchup even more weight as it tries to stay alive in Oklahoma City.
What comes next is straightforward: the winner advances to face No. 7 Tennessee in Monday's WCWS semifinals. Tennessee got there by beating No. 11 Texas Tech on Saturday on Emma Clarke's solo home run in the ninth inning, so the path from Sunday's game leads straight into another high-stakes test.
