This will be the 73rd year for the College World Series, featuring the eight remaining teams after two weekends of double-elimination play that begin with a 64-team field.
The Sooners were not one of the 64 teams that made it into NCAA postseason play this season, finishing with a 33-23 overall record after an imposing 20-4 start. But it hasn’t always been that way. Oklahoma has made 38 NCAA Tournament appearances and 10 trips to the CWS, third most of any Big 12 team.
Oklahoma is actually a two-time champion on college baseball’s biggest stage, the last of which came 25 years ago this year, in 1994.
