The eight-team field for the 2025 College World Series is set, with play beginning in Omaha on Friday, June 13.
The eight teams are divided into two brackets, which will play out in a double-elimination format. If the first few rounds of the 2025 NCAA baseball tournament are any indication, the CWS should be a thrilling 10-day stretch, as it usually is.
Only five of the 16 national seeds are left standing, with No. 3 Arkansas the highest seed remaining. The Razorbacks and No. 6 LSU are the only two SEC teams vying for the championship, hoping to keep the conference's title streak alive: A representative from the SEC has won each of the last five tournaments. It certainly appears like that streak is in imminent danger.
Elsewhere, two programs that have won championships within the decade are hoping for another title, in No. 13 Coastal Carolina and No. 8 Oregon State. The Chanticleers won the CWS in 2016, while the Beavers took home the trophy two years later, in 2018.
Here's everything that you need to know about watching the College World Series, including TV and live stream information for every game.
