Other notable consecutive streaks include Florida with 17, LSU with 13, Oklahoma State 12, and Dallas Baptist University with 11. 

The 29 programs that earned automatic bids into the NCAA Tournament

Vanderbilt (SEC), Arizona (Big 12), North Carolina (ACC), Nebraska (Big Ten), Creighton (Big East), East Carolina (American Athletic Conference), Florida Gulf Coast University (Atlantic Sun), East Tennessee State University (Southern), Northeastern (Coastal Athletic Association), Miami-Ohio (Mid-American), Western Kentucky (Conference USA), Fairfield (Metro Atlantic), Coastal Carolina (Sun Belt), Columbia (Ivy League), Bethune-Cookman (SWAC), Murray State (Missouri Valley), Utah Valley (Western Athletic), Binghamton (America East), Cal Poly (Big West), Wright State (Horizon League), Fresno State (Mountain West), Rhode Island (Atlantic 10), Houston Christian (Southland), Stetson University (Atlantic Sun), Arkansas-Little Rock (Ohio Valley), Holy Cross (Patriot League), USC Upstate (Big South), Central Connecticut State University (Northeast), and St. Mary’s – CA (West Coast Conference).

Programs that received at-large bids were: Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, LSU, Mississippi State, Ole Miss, Tennessee, and Texas (SEC), Clemson, Florida State, Wake Forest, Georgia Tech, Louisville, Miami (Florida), and NC State (ACC), Arizona State, Cincinnati, Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma State, TCU, and West Virginia (Big 12), UCLA, Oregon, and USC (Big Ten), Southern Mississippi (Sun Belt), UC Irvine (Big West), UTSA (American Athletic Conference), and Dallas Baptist University (Conference USA).

According to the Big 12 Conference website, “The Big 12 tied the Conference’s record with eight league baseball programs selected to the 2025 NCAA Division I Baseball Championship. The 2009 season is the only other season in which the Conference received eight bids to the national tournament. This is the fourth consecutive season and the 22nd time in 28 seasons that the league earned five or more bids.”

On May 25, Commissioner Jeff Bacon of the Atlantic Sun Tournament declared Stetson University the automatic qualifier for the 2025 NCAA Tournament after weather canceled the title game against Florida Gulf Coast University. Both teams were named co-champions. Florida Gulf Coast was left out of the field due to a 1-1 regular-season head-to-head result.

The SEC has a record 13 teams in the tournament, with six earning national seeds. Vanderbilt is the No. 1 overall seed.

Texas A&M became the first program in NCAA history to start the season ranked No. 1 and fail to make the tournament. The Aggies finished 30-26 overall and 11-19 in the SEC.

They are also the first preseason No. 1 team to miss the NCAA Tournament since 1991.

2025 NCAA Division I College World Series Outline

The 2025 NCAA Division I College World Series announced its game start times from the organizers of the event, the College World Series of Omaha Inc. on Jan. 16.

All of the 2025 NCAA Division I CWS will be played at Charles Schwab Field in Omaha, Neb., from June 13-23 if there is a Game Three in the National Championship Series.

The ESPN family networks and ABC will broadcast the entire College World Series until the final out of the NCS.

The NCAA Division I College World Series is a double-elimination event alongside the Regionals and Super Regionals.

2025 NCAA Division I Tournament Schedule Prior to Omaha:

  • Regionals: Friday-Monday, May 30-June 2
  • Super Regionals: Friday-Monday, June 6-9

The MCWS has been in Omaha since the 1950 event prior to being held in Wichita, Kan., at Lawrence-Dumont Stadium in 1949 and in Kalamazoo, Mich., at Hyames Field from 1947 until 1948.

Johnny Rosenblatt Stadium was home to the MCWS from 1950-2010 prior to Charles Schwab Field opening its doors and the new location for the Creighton University baseball program in 2011.

Last year, the 2024 CWS featured half of the programs in the Power Five from the Southeastern Conference with the University of Kentucky, the University of Florida, Texas A&M University, and the University of Tennessee alongside the Atlantic Coast Conference with North Carolina State University, Florida State University, the University of Virginia and the University of North Carolina, which was the first time ever that the tournament had split the field in half from just two conferences.

No. 1 ranked, Tennessee under head coach Tony Vitello won their first National Championship in the 2024 CWS when they defeated Texas A&M 6-5 in the deciding Game Three.

Tennessee’s Dylan Dreiling was named the Most Outstanding Player at the 2024 CWS after he led the Volunteers with a .542 batting average, three home runs, and 11 RBIs. In the championship series, Dreiling went 7-for-12 with four runs and seven RBIs, while becoming the first player in MCWS history to homer in all three games of the finals.

The scope of the 2025 NCAA Division I season will now have its eyes on the last remaining eight teams that will get to Omaha. This includes the new Power-Four conference structure with the ACC, SEC, Big Ten and Big 12 having new programs, after the PAC-12 fell through on the alignment angle after the 2024 regular season out of the post Power-Five era.
