The participants are ready, with Arizona, Arkansas, Coastal Carolina, LSU, Louisville, Murray State, Oregon State, and UCLA entering Nebraska dreaming of victory. Check out the full bracket below. Play ball.

Friday, June 13

Game 1 – Coastal Carolina 7, Arizona 4
Coastal Carolina and Arizona were tied at 4-4 entering the bottom of the eighth, but the Chanticleers’ bats woke up in a big way from there. They scored three runs in the inning to go up 7-4, which held as the final as Coastal Carolina advanced into the winners’ bracket.

Game 2 – Oregon State 4, Louisville 3
After failing to cross the plate in Friday’s game, Louisville broke through in the top of the ninth. The Cardinals – thanks to some chaotic sequences – pushed two runs across to tie things up at 3-3. That brought Oregon State up hoping to walk it off, and that’s exactly what Gavin Turley did with a game-winning double to seal the 4-3 victory.

Saturday, June 14

Game 3 – UCLA 6, Murray State 4
UCLA broke out in a big way in the fourth inning to take control against Murray State in Saturday’s opening game. The Racers didn’t back down, though, and made things interesting late. However, the Bruins held on for the 6-4 victory to advance in the winners’ bracket.

Game 4 – LSU 4, Arkansas 1

LSU got the better of SEC rival Arkansas on Saturday to advance to the winner’s bracket. LSU opened up a 3-0 lead in the second inning and hung on the rest of the way. It was a stifling effort from the LSU defense, which allowed only three hits all day as Kade Anderson picked up the win at pitcher. The Razorbacks now move on to face Murray State on Monday, where they’ll need to win to keep their season alive.

Sunday, June 15

Game 5 – Louisville 8, Arizona 3

Louisville entered the bottom of the eighth inning down 3-2 to Arizona. Then, the Cardinals caught fire, rattling off six runs to take a commanding 8-3 lead. Louisville senior Kamau Neighbors was spectacular for the Cardinals, recording a game-high four hits on four at-bats. With the win, Louisville secured at least another two days in Omaha.

— Arizona eliminated

Game 6 – Coastal Carolina 6, Oregon State 2

A double, with three runs batted in from it, at the top of the opening inning gave Coastal Carolina the lead for the game tonight in Omaha, with the Chanticleers putting up three more runs total in the fourth and fifth. The Beavers were then unable to score enough runs with Jacob Morrison, Hayden Johson, and Ryan Lynch striking out 10 and posting an ERA of 1.87. Coastal Carolina, having won 25 straight, will now be a win away from making the finals of the College World Series, while Oregon State will play a rematch with Louisville on Tuesday for the right to play the Chanticleers again for a chance at the championship series.

Monday, June 16

Game 7 – Arkansas 3, Murray State 0

Gage Wood is now forever a College World Series legend, throwing a no-hitter against Murray State to eliminate the Racers. Just three have been thrown in the event’s history. If not for an eighth-inning hit by pitch, Wood would have a perfect game attached to his name. But still not too shabby of an accomplishment for the righty as his pitch count finished at 119. Arguably more importantly, Arkansas kept its season alive and will now face the loser of Monday’s nightcap.

— Murray State eliminated

Tuesday, June 17

Game 8 – LSU 9, UCLA 5

After the game was delayed following the first three innings on Monday, LSU picked up where it left off and defeated UCLA 9-5 on Tuesday. In the win, LSU’s Jared Jones was spectacular, recording two hits, including a three-run homer in the bottom of the first inning.

Game 9 – Louisville 7, Oregon State 6

In one of the more wild ninth innings in College World Series history, Louisville avoided disaster to stay alive in Omaha. Up three going into the top half of the frame, Oregon State came back to tie things up. Louisville promptly responded with a walk-off sac-fly. Elation for the Cardinals while the Beavers experience heartbreak.

— Oregon State eliminated

Game 10 – Arkansas 7, UCLA 3

For the second time on Tuesday, UCLA was out on the field. Both results wound up being the same as the Bruins are going home. Arkansas was just too much for them to handle, putting up a seven-spot to keep their College World Series hopes alive. Now, we have an all-SEC rematch with the championship series on the line.

More on the 2025 College World Series

Some history is being made with this year’s College World Series field. In the Super Regional era, dating back to 1999, there has always been at least one repeat visitor. But as Aria Gerson of The Tennessean put out on social media, a completely fresh slate of teams is making their way to Omaha.

“2025 will be the first time in the super regional era (since 1999) that no team that made it to the College World Series the year before will be back in Omaha,’ Gerson said via X.

Six different conferences will be represented as well. Nobody has more than two, as the SEC has a pair of teams still alive to win a national championship. However, the former Pac-12 might have something to say about that, seeing Oregon State and UCLA in the field.
