How the D1 Baseball Tournament Works
Understanding the tournament structure is essential for postseason betting strategy. Here’s how it breaks down:
Regionals: 64 teams compete in 16 double-elimination brackets
Super Regionals: The 16 regional winners advance to eight best-of-three series
Men’s College World Series: The final eight play in two double-elimination brackets in Omaha
MCWS Finals: The two bracket winners face off in a best-of-three to determine the national champion
Selection Process for the NCAA Baseball Tournament
The field of 64 is determined by a combination of automatic conference bids (30) and at-large selections (34) made by the NCAA Division I Baseball Committee. Sixteen teams are designated as national seeds, granting them hosting rights through at least the Super Regionals—if they advance.
