Overall No. 1 seed Vanderbilt, one of the favorites to get to the College World Series, became the first top seed to miss a regional final since the current format began in 1999. Commodores coach Tim Corbin said he failed to properly equip his team to win after Vanderbilt cruised through the SEC Tournament en route to a title.

The 2025 NCAA baseball Super Regional field is set following six winner-take-all games on Monday. Top seed Vanderbilt and No. 2 seed Texas were both eliminated on Sunday, but five of the six other top-eight national seeds advanced and will serve as hosts next weekend.

Vanderbilt baseball lost to Wright State, 5-4, to end its season as the first No. 1 overall seed to not reach the regional final.
