Southeastern Conference with seven regional host sites, Georgia hosting for the third straight season

A total of seven Southeastern Conference (SEC) teams will be hosting regionals for the 2026 NCAA Tournament. The SEC has the most hosts out of any conference in college baseball.

The Georgia Bulldogs will host a regional at Foley Field in Athens for the third straight season. The Bulldogs have a 46-12 overall record and were 23-7 in SEC play. They won the SEC regular season and the SEC Tournament in Hoover, Ala.

Other SEC teams hosting regionals include the Auburn Tigers, Texas Longhorns, Florida Gators, Alabama Crimson Tide, Texas A&M Aggies, and Mississippi State.

Texas and Florida State continue to lead the all-time list with hosting regionals

The Texas Longhorns and Florida State Seminoles are hosting regionals in Austin and Tallahassee, respectively. The two college baseball programs continue to lead in hosting regionals historically.

The Seminoles are hosting a regional for the 38th time in college baseball history, which is the most ever by a single program. The Longhorns are hosting a regional for the 31st time ever. They are behind Florida State for hosting the second-most regionals ever.
