Only two teams remain in the 2025 College World Series.
The field is down to No. 6 LSU and No. 13 Coastal Carolina, the latter of which enters the national championship on a 26-game win streak. It’s the second time Tigers coach Jay Johnson has faced the Chanticleers in the national championship, as he fell to Coastal Carolina in 2016 as the head coach at Arizona.
LSU snuck past Arkansas in the semifinals, coming back from a 5-3 deficit in the bottom of the ninth to win 6-5 on a walk-off single from Jared Jones. Coastal Carolina, meanwhile, coasted to an 11-3 win over Louisville to reach the CWS finals.
With six teams eliminated, and only two teams still in contention for a national title, here’s a look back at how the bracket shaped up in 2025, along with the remaining schedule at the College World Series:
