OMAHA, Neb. — Teams at the College World Series have given a new meaning to the phrase “Road to Omaha.”
Arkansas, Notre Dame, Ole Miss and Oklahoma have played all of their postseason games away from their home ballparks, and combined to knock out eight of the national seeds that have been eliminated. Texas and Auburn also advanced to Omaha with victories in road super regionals.
Only Stanford and Texas A&M — the No. 2 and 5 overall seeds in this year’s tournament — are here after playing home games in the regional and super regional rounds.
