The Women's College World Series gets started this Thursday. With only eight teams left, we've already seen some spectacular upsets, such as No. 14 Alabama winning a 14-inning thriller against Tennessee in a must-win Game 2 and then witnessing a masterful Game 3 from pitcher Jocelyn Briski to advance to the College World Series.

As the NCAA looks to crown a champion, there are certainly favorites with teams like Oklahoma (won three straight national championships) and Texas still alive, but this year's tournament certainly feels more wide open than others in recent memory.

Here is the full schedule for the 2024 Women's College World Series in Oklahoma City, plus odds and predictions from around the internet.

Women's College World Series Predictions:

Edward Sutelan, Sporting News: Oklahoma is still dominant

Sutelan writes, "The Sooners are once again dominant in nearly all facets of the game. They rank seventh in team ERA (1.85), first in on-base percentage (.473) and second in slugging percentage (.724) among all Division I teams. They have outscored opponents 483-107 this season."

Bryan Clinton, Heartland College Sports: No. 1 Texas to disappoint

Clinton writes, "This might not be a popular opinion, but seeing Texas on the ropes last weekend makes me think that they might walk into OKC a bit staggered. That, combined with NiJaree Canady on deck, is a bad bad combination. I don’t see Texas going 2-and-Que, but I do think the No. 1 seed is headed to the Loser’s bracket out the gate, and that will put them in win-or-go-home mode for the rest of the week."
