The women's college volleyball season is in the stretch run, with weekly updates continuing until the NCAA selection committee reveals the field of 64 on Nov. 30 at 6 p.m. ET. There are 31 automatic bids and 33 at-large selections. The committee seeds the top eight teams in each region, and the top four in each region serve as first- and second-round hosts while the rest of the bracket is balanced competitively and geographically. The highest remaining seeds host regionals. Nebraska, Kentucky, Texas and Pittsburgh are projected No. 1 seeds, and late-season road tests could alter the top lines.
"There are 31 automatic bids with 33 at-large teams chosen by the NCAA volleyball committee. Volleyball seeds the top eight teams in each region, and the top four in each region serve as first- and second-round hosts. The rest of the bracket is filled out to balance it competitively and geographically. The highest-remaining seeds also host the regionals, and the 2025 Final Four is in Kansas City, Missouri, on Dec. 18 with the finals on Dec. 21."
"Bracket watch The No. 1 seeds stayed intact with Nebraska continuing to roll, Kentucky moving to 13-0 in the SEC, Texas regaining its footing and Pittsburgh getting a rare break in the ACC with consecutive matches against two of the league's worst teams. That stability could be challenged this week."
"The Cornhuskers make a trip to the West Coast with matches against dangerous USC and UCLA. The Panthers do the same with their cross-country swing. Friday's Pittsburgh-Stanford matchup will shape the top two lines as the season hits its final two weeks. The Cardinal, currently a No. 2 seed, have a big opportunity with SMU also coming to Palo Alto this weekend."
