After nearly a month into the 2024 softball season, it was time to update the bracket. There are quite a few surprises so far this season including the slow start by UCLA, Stanford, and Florida State, as well as Oklahoma’s 71-game win streak has been snapped; California and Arizona are off to hot starts, and LSU in the SEC remaining as the only undefeated team left in softball at 19-0. Things could drastically change in the next bracketology that will be released within the next two weeks.
