Top Super Regional Encounters in 2024
#1 No. 9 Georgia vs. No. 15 NC State
The Wolfpack versus the Bulldogs. So far the only encounter among ranked schools in the Super Regional round of games. It's also a game that will have the best player in the SEC and one of the top prospects for the 2024 MLB Draft, Georgia's Charlie Condon.
Georgia comes off beating the Army, UNWC and Georgia Tech on the Athens Regional. For their part, NC State went past Bryant, South Carolina and James Madison from the Raleigh Regional.
#2 No. 13 Virginia vs. Kansas State
This is sort of a battle of Cinderella stories. The K-State Wildcats notably knocked out the No. 5 national seed, Arkansas, on their way to winning the Fayetteville regional against SEMO. The Virginia Cavaliers are the second lowest-ranked school in the Super Regional round this year.
Virginia's path on the Charlottesville would seem a simple one if one only looks to their first game against the Ivy League's UPenn. However, they had to beat Mississippi State twice.
