OMAHA, Neb. — No. 15 national seed UCLA, unseeded Murray State, No. 3 seed Arkansas and No. 6 LSU practiced in that order Thursday afternoon at Charles Schwab Field in the second block of teams at the College World Series

Here are the eight teams set to chase a national title in Omaha when the College World Series gets underway this week.

UCLA is 47-16 on the year and ranks No. 11 nationally in the Massey Ratings. Playing in the Big Ten, the Bruins didn't face the same caliber of schedule as some other teams in Omaha did. Their NCAA Tournament path has been on the easier side too, facing UTSA in the super regional.
