2022 College World Series schedule: Playoff bracket originally appeared on NBC Sports Washington
It's that time of year again: the finale of the college baseball season is upon us. The College World Series pits some of the best programs (and players) in the nation in a winner-take-all tournament.
After the 2020 tournament was cancelled outright due to COVID-19, Mississippi State stormed into the CWS last year to take the national championship. The entire season was a tour-de-force for the Bulldogs, after a 50-18 campaign culminated with a 9-0 victory over Vanderbilt in the final matchup.
