In their first season under head coach Jim Schlossnagle, the Texas Longhorns won the Southeastern Conference regular season title outright and established a place at the top of the rankings for most of the 2025 campaign. As postseason play begins this week for SEC teams, Texas will have a target on their backs. The Longhorns were ranked No. 2 in the D1Baseball top 25 as the college baseball regular season comes to an end.
