The eight-team field is set for the 2025 College World Series in Omaha, which will run from June 13th to 22nd or 23rd at Charles Schwab Field. The Arkansas Razorbacks enter the 2025 CWS as the betting favorites. They are one of three teams in the tournament that has never won a national championship (Louisville, Murray State).
The opening odds for the eight-team tournament basically set up the 2025 CWS as Arkansas and LSU versus the field, even though the Razorbacks and Tigers are on the same side of the bracket.
College World Series Odds
Arkansas is currently +200 to win its first baseball national title, which amounts to a 33.33% implied win probability. The LSU Tigers are a close second-favorite at +225 (30.77% implied win probability). After the top two, there’s a steep drop to third-favorite Coastal Carolina at +600 and fourth-favorite Oregon State at +650. UCLA (+900), Arizona (+1400), Louisville (+1600), and Murray State (+3500) round out the eight-team field.
None of the eight teams in this year’s field reached the CWS last season. Murray State is making its first ever appearance in the College World Series. Other than the Racers, UCLA has the longest CWS drought among this year’s teams, last reaching the College World Series in 2013.
Arkansas has been the outright favorite in the College World Series odds since the 64-team tournament started back on May 30. The Razorbacks eliminated Tennessee, the defending national champion, in two games in the Fayetteville Super Regional (4-3, 11-4).
2025 CWS Bracket
The eight teams in the CWS are split into two groups of four (Bracket 1 and Bracket 2). One team from each half of the bracket will advance to the best-of-three final series. The preliminary round is double-elimination. The best-of-three final will run from June 21st to June 22nd or 23rd.
2025 College World Series First-Round Schedule
Not only are LSU and Arkansas on the same side of the bracket, they are also slated to meet in the first round of the tournament on June 14th, meaning one of the two heavy favorites will immediately be one game away from elimination.
In the other first-round matchup in Bracket 2, Murray State will meet UCLA.
In Bracket 1, Oregon State will face Louisville in the first round, while Arizona will meet Coastal Carolina.
The losers of the first-round games will meet in elimination games two days later, while the winners will square of for a spot in the semifinals.
