Hello! There's no alternating format. Each level is double-elimination. The field of a super regional is two teams; therefore the double-elimination format is synonymous with a "best two of three series." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.134.31.178 (talk) 12:33, 9 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't this article and College World Series be merged? The College World Series is essentially the culmination of the NCAA Division I Baseball Championship. In comparison, Final Four redirects to NCAA Division I Basketball Championship and this is an analogous situation. DandyDan2007 23:46, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that it should be merged, however, I also think that we should rename all of the individual College World Series pages to something like 2006 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament. I've always wanted to do it but never had the motivation. The individual pages, however, only document the CWS part of the tournament. I think they should document the entire tournament like the NCAA pages. (See: 2006 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament) Thoughts? Seancp 14:54, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I went ahead and got started on the first switchover. I chose to create a new page for the 2000 tournament because, well, I'm an LSU fan and they won it all that year. Link: 2000 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament I'd like for the regionals section to show a tournament bracket just like the CWS section, but I can't find a 4 team double elimination bracket template, nor can I find all of the individual game results from the regionals. The best resource I have for this info is here: http://www.tfn.net/~jcarr/Baseball/. Does anyone know where I can find a 4 team double elimination bracket template? That would be great. I'd also like to get to work on cleaning up the page. It's a bit messy. I'd like to have one excellent looking example for others to follow when editing/creating pages on the baseball tournament. More to come, stay tuned. Seancp 19:45, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind, I figured out that I can use the CWSBracket template for the rest of the tournament as well. No need for a 4 team double elimination bracket. Seancp 20:17, 31 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Here's the template listing all individual pages:

Ya a link to a source would be really helpful for this info. I think this infor should be added to the 1950-1953 section as an example to how it worked, not nessessarily as a table, but inserting the raw info would be best.Millertime246 (talk) 16:09, 2 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article doens't mention how the 64 teams are selected. There are conference champion winners and the rest are awarded at-large bids, just like NCAA soccer, basketball and hockey. TimTempleton ^{(talk) (cont)} 23:26, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Tim, please feel free to add this information. I agree that it would be beneficial. Just please be sure you cite sources. Billcasey905 (talk) 23:32, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I did a quick look before posting and didn't find anything definitive, but will keep looking. TimTempleton ^{(talk) (cont)} 23:37, 11 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
