The 2026 Division I college baseball regular season is in the books, and we’re one week away from the selection of the bracket. But before then, postseason conference tournaments, automatic berths, and Regional hosts must be sorted out this week. Here’s how the schools stand heading into conference tourney week.

- Ole Miss (-1)
- Oklahoma State (+2)
- Arizona State

Boston College and Jacksonville State dropped out of the top 25.
It’s not a shock that, after a full season of play, little movement happened after the final week of the regular season. The top eight remained unchanged, and all teams in the top 10 from the penultimate week returned. Texas A&M and Southern Miss switching spots was the only movement.
UCLA pieced together two wins in Washington to take their final series of 2026. Roman Martin had a big day during the final regular-season contest with four hits. The Bruins finished 2026 with a 28-2 record in Big 10, easily best in the conference.
North Carolina finished the regular season with a road series victory over NC State. Jason DeCaro struck eight over five innings on May 14, while ACC Freshman Pitcher of the Year Caden Glauber picked up his eighth win of 2026 one day later.
It wasn’t enough to unseat Georgia Tech for the top spot in the ACC regular-season standings. The Yellow Jackets finished three games ahead of UNC and will enter postseason play on a 10-game winning streak. Georgia Tech scored 38 combined runs in a three-game sweep against Boston College this past weekend.
The ACC has three teams in the top 10, while the SEC has four. Two of those teams were Georgia & Auburn, a series won by the Bulldogs. Georgia took the first two games of that series, highlighted by a 9-7 victory on May 15. Rylan Lujo and Jordy Oriach both hit home runs for UGA.
UGA finished with the top in-conference record at 23-7.
