Which NCAA baseball teams could blow up the bracket
The Montgomery Advertiser’s Adam Cole and The Southwest Times Record’s Jackson Fuller break down who could wreck the tournament bracket.
The 2025 College World Series will say goodbye to its first two on June 15.
The first of those teams will be either Arizona (42-18) or Louisville (38-21), who square off in the first elimination game of the CWS at 2 p.m. ET from Charles Schwab Field Omaha in Omaha, Nebraska. Both teams are coming off tough opening-round losses, but can keep their seasons alive with a win.
The Wildcats lost 7-4 to No. 13 seed Coastal Carolina after the Chanticleers scored three runs in the bottom of the eighth inning to squeeze out the win. Meanwhile, Gavin Turley’s RBI double in the ninth gave No. 8 Oregon State a 4-3 win over the Cardinals. Louisville had tied the game 3-3 in the top of the inning.
