Georgia and Mississippi State Gear Up for Decisive Super Regional

A best‑of‑three series opens June 6, with ESPN coverage and tickets sold out, forcing fans to turn to secondary markets.

The 2026 NCAA baseball season culminates in a high‑stakes Super Regional that pits the Mississippi State Bulldogs against the Georgia Bulldogs in a best‑of‑three contest for a place in the College World Series.

Georgia arrives as the No. 3 seed with a 49‑12 record, while Mississippi State holds the No. 14 seed after finishing 43‑17; the Bulldogs have already split four meetings this season, with Georgia winning all of them and capturing both the SEC regular‑season and tournament titles.

The games are slated to begin on Saturday, June 6, in Athens, Georgia, and could extend to Monday, June 9, should a third contest be required; all contests will be televised on ESPN, with the later schedule still being finalized.

With school tickets sold out, fans are turning to secondary markets such as StubHub to secure seats, and parking will be available near Foley Field without reserved spots.

A Look Back at Georgia’s Recent Super Regional History

Georgia has made six Super Regional appearances, posting a 9‑5 record, and its most recent home Super Regional in 2024 ended with a two‑game sweep by N.C. State, a reminder of the volatility that can accompany these matchups.

The atmosphere will be amplified by the presence of university representatives, including Brian O’Connor, who will be on hand to oversee the event’s logistics.
