9:00 PM ET

The Texas A&M pitcher contemplated one piece of advice while waiting for his start against Texas.

Dallas couldn't help but notice that it was the Men's College World Series. The man flashed a double Horns Down sign as he ran onto the field.

Dallas said it was similar to breathing: death, taxes and Horns down. There's no hatred towards them. They're a good ball club.

If you were to look at social media before the game, you would think it was dead. Today, the fans were amazing. Both sides enjoyed it. It can affect you in either positive or negative ways. You can use the crowd's energy when you're older.

Texas and Texas A&M have been playing baseball against each other for over a century, but the stakes were high on Saturday. They'd faced each other for the first time in the CWS, and the loser would leave.

Texas has six national titles and is the winningest Division I baseball program of all time, while the Aggies haven't won a game in 29 years.

It was until Sunday.

Dallas, who was born in Texas, was unperturbed. He threw 51 pitches and gave up two runs in the heat of the day.

Jim Schlossnagle chatted with Dallas after the first baseman. Schlossnagle told him to keep doing what he was doing. Dallas stated that it gave him confidence. He stymies the Longhorns until the top of the sixth, when the A&M built an 8-2 lead. In the sixth, Texas staged one last rally, when Dylan Campbell and Silas Ardoin both got on the board.

Jacob Palisch was called on by the A&M's. Mitchell Daly yelled "Let's go!" after the graduate transfer struck out the next two hitters. Ivan Melendez led the nation in home runs and was the Longhorns' leading scorer.

On the opposite-field drive, Melendez hit the ball foul. The fans wearing burnt orange and maroon and white stood up. He looked at the pitch at the knees.

Palisch made a loud noise. He raised his body in shock.

The Texas coach said after the game that he felt confused.

He said that he thought they had a good start. We got one in the first and the second. The story of the last three months has been you just overcoming biginnings Today, that came up. It's worn on the position players and they feel like they're playing uphill. It may have caught up to us. We were standing on the field.

The team seemed to be having a good time on Saturday. Troy Claunch was given a Pringles chip when he scored in the second baseman. The Pringles routine began when the A's lost to Houston. The team was told to win like Pringles.

They eat Pringles when they score a run or make a play.

The A&M fans showed up at the team hotel to make sure the team got on the bus. A College Station resident who sits in Section 203 during home baseball games, fist-bumped the players and headed for the stadium with his own survival kit: a maroon A&M koozie, a vial of bubbles to blow after every score, and, of course, a big hug

Martin reversed the initials of the team.

Do you know how excited we are? We are excited.

When Texas A&M left the Big 12 for the SEC, the Texas-Texas A&M rivalry lost some of its shine. The teams didn't play each other for 3 years. They played an annual Tuesday game in 2015. Baseball teams are the only teams that play each other.

When Texas becomes a member of the SEC, that will change.

Dallas didn't think about that late in the day. He went to Texas Tech, despite having conversations with the University of Texas. While the Longhorns are heading home, Dallas' unbelievable season continues.

He said that when he was a child, he thought about playing against his biggest rival on the biggest stage.
