Rankings from D1Baseball

The 2025 Oklahoma Sooners baseball team represent the University of Oklahoma during the 2025 NCAA Division I baseball season. The Sooners played their home games at L. Dale Mitchell Baseball Park. It is Oklahoma's first season as members of the SEC. They are led by head coach Skip Johnson, in his 8th season at Oklahoma.

Previous season

The Sooners finished the 2024 season with a 40–21 overall record and a 23–7 record in Big 12 play, winning the regular season title in their final season in the conference. In the 2024 Big 12 Conference baseball tournament, the Sooners reached the final, where they played their in-state rivals, Oklahoma State, where they lost, 3–9 in the championship.

Despite losing the Big 12 title, the Sooners received an at-large berth into the 2024 NCAA Division I baseball tournament, receiving an 11th overall seed, giving them rights to host a regional. In the Norman Regional, they were pitted with Oral Roberts, Duke, and UConn. In the regional final, Oklahoma lost 1–7 to UConn, missing out at a chance to play in a Super Regional.

Preseason

After the conclusion of the 2024 season, Texas fired head coach David Pierce.[2] Just one day later on June 25th, the Longhorns hired Texas A&M head coach Jim Schlossnagle.[3] Schlossnagle proceeded to bring two members of Texas A&M's coaching staff along with him including Nolan Cain and Max Weiner.[4]

The SEC Coaches poll was released on February 2, 2025. Oklahoma was predicted to finish eleventh in the SEC.[5]
