Heads-up: some ticket resale sites still show "June 14–24, 2027" — that's recycled 2024 data. The NCAA's future-dates listing has Omaha starting Friday June 18, 2027.

2026: Oklahoma's year

Oklahoma beat North Carolina 2-1 in the best-of-three finals, hammering Game 3 13-2 on June 22, 2026 — the Sooners' third national title and first since 1994, and a seventh straight championship for the SEC. They'll defend in 2027 against a field that includes 2025 champions LSU, chasing title number nine.
