The U's came to Bloomfield Road with hopes of upsetting the apple cart and did a great of job of bringing chaos, bringing excitement.
They kept fighting, scoring goals from Matty Taylor, Rob Atkinson and Olamide Shodipo to keep the home side on their toes.
That said, Blackpool were never in danger, and their goals from Elliot Emnbleton, Kenny Dougall and Jerry Yates are enough to keep a comfortable three-goal cushion.
Wembley beckons now for Neil Critchley's team.
