NCAA Sets Super Regional Times and TV Slots Ahead of Weekend Play

The announcement fixes broadcasts and start times for the June 5–8 best-of-three series and clears the path for eight winners to reach the College World Series.

Overview

  • The NCAA released full game times and network assignments for all eight Super Regionals on Tuesday, scheduling the best-of-three series for June 5–8 with broadcasts across the ESPN family and streaming on ESPN apps and Fubo.
  • Auburn will host Ole Miss with Game 1 at 7 p.m. CT Friday on ESPN2 and Game 2 at 4 p.m. CT Saturday on ESPN while an if-necessary Game 3 on Sunday has time and network to be announced; Auburn reached this round after rallying out of the regional losers' bracket.
  • Georgia will host Mississippi State at Foley Field in a reported sellout, with Game 1 set for 11 a.m. ET Saturday on ESPN, Game 2 at noon ET Sunday on ESPN, and a possible Game 3 Monday at a time and network to be determined; Georgia will be without Tre Phelps for Game 1 because of a one-game suspension.
  • DraftKings posted odds favoring most host teams, with examples including Auburn -195 and Georgia -145, and local beat writers widely predict close series that could go the full three games.
  • Winners of the Super Regionals will advance to the College World Series in Omaha (June 12–22), a stage where home-field advantage, pitching management and bullpen depth are expected to shape who moves on.
