Although the Big 12 lost Texas and Oklahoma for the 2025 college baseball season, the conference is still expected to be among the top leagues nationally.
Three Big 12 programs – Oklahoma State, Arizona and TCU – were all in the top 25 of USA TODAY Sports’ college baseball preseason poll, with the Cowboys also picked to win the conference by league coaches in the offseason.
Oklahoma State returns power-hitting left-handed hitter Nolan Schubart, a junior who has a chance to be a first-round pick in the 2025 MLB draft. The 6-foot-5 outfielder and preseason Big 12 Player of the Year finished his sophomore season with a .370 batting average with 23 home runs and a ridiculous .838 slugging percentage.
