The 2024 softball season is off and running and this week from coast-to-coast tournament play continues.

The Oklahoma Sooners are heading west for the annual Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic for a five-game slate. Additionally, some fantastic matchups are happening in Austin, Raleigh, and in Athens.

But what are the best matchups happening this weekend? Here’s a look at eight games we’re looking forward to.

The Oklahoma Sooners will open the Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic with a top 25 matchup against a Mississippi State team that arrives in California 8-1 and coming off wins over Clemson and Utah last week.

The Bulldogs haven’t allowed more than three runs in any game this season. Now, they take on an Oklahoma Sooners squad that has been an offensive juggernaut for the last three-plus seasons.

Tennessee’s off to a hot start to the season and currently ranks No. 5 in three fo the four major rankings. UCLA, on the other hand, is off to a very sluggish start with a 3-4 record in their first seven games.

Nobody’s writing off the Bruins just yet, but this is an opportunity for the west coast powerhouse to reassert itself on the national level.
