The NCAA men's baseball tournament kicks off this weekend, capped by the College World Series. How do the CWS, Regionals, and Super Regionals work?
The college baseball postseason is one of the most electric tournaments in sports. However, with over 300 D-I teams to keep track of and what might seem like a nonsensical tournament structure, college baseball itself has a high barrier of entry. Let's take a look at how the tournament works, from campuses to Omaha and, hopefully, lower that barrier of entry.This postseason is made up of three rounds: Regionals, Super Regionals, and the College World Series .
As mentioned, a team needs to lose twice in order to be eliminated. Regional victors can go 3-0, 3-1, or 4-1 to advance to the Super Regionals round.Game 2: No. 2 seed vs. No. 3 seedGame 5: Winner Game 3 vs. Loser Game 4Super Regionals Structure The eight teams are broken up into 2 four-team brackets. Winners from regions 1/16, 8/9, 5/12, and 4/13 are grouped into one while the other region winners are grouped into another. We return to the double elimination structure last seen in the Regional round. The game structure is the same.
