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.
1 Eight teams began the playoffs with the four finalists decided by a best-of-three district format.  1950â1987 â An eight-team, double-elimination format for the College World Series coincided with the move to Omaha in 1950. 1950â1953, a baseball committee chose one team from each of the eight NCAA districts to compete at the CWS. Through 1987 the College World Series was a pure double-elimination event.
