After 13 weeks of competition, 62 Division I women’s gymnastics teams have been whittled down to just eight.
They are, listed alphabetically:
- Alabama
- Florida
- LSU
- Michigan State
- Missouri
- Oklahoma
- UCLA
- Utah
One of those eight teams will end up the 2025 national champions. The rest will have to wait another year in hopes of hoisting the coveted trophy.
Who will win the title this year? Is there a clear favorite? Who are the contenders and pretenders? How does Utah compare to the other seven teams? Is this the year the Red Rocks finally break through and win their 10th NCAA national championship (11th national title all-time)?
Let’s break down the field.
The favorite(s)
