The schedule is set for the NCAA super regionals at Foley Field, Athens.
No. 3 national seed Georgia’s best-of-three series against No. 14 national seed Mississippi State will run Saturday through Monday. A Monday game would only be played if the teams split the first two.
The winner of the series advances to the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska.
The Bulldogs drew some early start times: Saturday’s game begins at 11 a.m. and Sunday’s at noon, with both scheduled to be broadcast on ESPN.
With No. 1 national seed UCLA defeated by Saint Mary’s before the regional finals and No. 2 national seed Georgia Tech losing to Oklahoma in the finals Monday, Georgia is the highest seed remaining in the NCAA Tournament.
Georgia (49-12) lost in super regionals in 2024 and regionals in 2025, with this year’s team hoping to make it back to Omaha for the first time since 2008. The Bulldogs won the College World Series in 1990.
Georgia will have to play Game 1 of super regionals without third baseman Tre Phelps, who was ejected for taunting after his go-ahead, two-run home run in Georgia’s 6-1 win against Liberty in the Athens Regional final Sunday.
Mississippi State (43-17), which cruised through the Starkville Regional, will be looking to avoid a fifth and sixth loss to Georgia this season.
