The 2025 College World Series field is underway in Omaha, Nebraska. This year features an entirely new field of eight teams representing seven different conferences.
On Saturday, this year’s Cinderella team, the Murray State Racers, were defeated by the UCLA Bruins, 6-4. The Racers scored four unanswered runs after falling behind 6-0 in the fourth inning, but went three up and three down with their final chance in the top of the ninth.
The LSU Tigers also stole a 4-1 win against the title-favorite Arkansas Razorbacks thanks to a masterful performance from pitcher Kade Anderson. He notched seven strikeouts in seven innings, and allowed just three hits while throwing 60 strikes on 100 pitches.
On Friday, Coastal Carolina and Arizona got things started with a back-and-forth game at Charles Schwab Field. Entering the bottom of the eighth inning, the Chanticleers and Wildcats were tied at 4-4, but Coastal Carolina took control with an RBI single and a two-RBI double.
Down 7-4 in the bottom of the ninth, Arizona got runners on the corners with no one out. That’s when Chants pitcher Dominick Carbone slammed the door with a strikeout of Dom Rodriguez before inducing a double play.
In the nightcap, Oregon State won in walk-off fashion after Gavin Turley’s double to deep left drove in Aiva Arquette, who just beat the throw to home plate. Turley’s heroics came after Louisville had tied the score by scoring two runs at the top of the frame.
The Beavers received a stellar night from their All-American pitcher, Dax Whitney. In 5.1 innings, the freshman struck out nine batters while allowing just three hits and zero earned runs.
Following the first two days of action, the national championship odds have shifted quite a bit. Arkansas went from the favorite to having the fourth-shortest odds at +600, with LSU now in front at +125. Here are the updated championship odds for every team, according to DraftKings.
- LSU (+125)
- Coastal Carolina (+360)
- Oregon State (+425)
- Arkansas (+600)
- UCLA (+650)
- Arizona (+6500)
- Louisville (+7000)
