how college baseball world series is determined
The College World Series can be broken down into two stages: the group stage and the finals. In the group stage, the eight teams are split into two bracket groups of four, which play a double elimination mini-tournament. This is the same format as the regional round that opened the tournament. The winner of each of the two groups advances to the finals, a best of three series to determine a national champion. Like in the regionals, winning the first two games of group play provides a massive advantage.
