We’re nearing the end of the “Road to Omaha.”
After a grueling eight-team playoff, Owen Hull’s North Carolina Tar Heels are facing Jaxon Willits’ Oklahoma Sooners in the 2026 NCAA College World Series at the 24,000-seat Charles Schwab Field.
The three-game, winner-takes-all showdown is scheduled to take place:

Both clubs are hungry starving for a title. The last time the Sooners were crowned CWS champions was way back in 1994 (and featured future MLBers Russ Ortiz, Mark Redman and Ryan and Damon Minor along with the exquisitely-named pitcher Bucky Buckles); as for the Tar Heels, they’ve still chasing their first title.
To get this far, Oklahoma blanked No. 7 Alabama 9-0 and then swept No. 3 Georgia 4-3 and 11-4. Jason Walk and Dasan Harris each mashed a pair of taters in their most recent contest to advance.
“When you go back and look at what we’ve done in the fall and spring, we never stopped believing and those guys really turned around our year,” coach Skip Johnson said after a rollercoaster season that included a nine-game stretch where the team lost seven times.
North Carolina played their hearts out and won all three playoffs games in order to get to the big dance. Hull raked in the deciding 12-7 showdown against West Virginia and knocked a single, two doubles and a triple to secure the dub.
Now they look for their first CWS championship after 12 appearances, tying them with with Arkansas and Clemson for universities who have made a dozens trips to Omaha and came home empty-handed.
Make like Bucky Buckles and buckle up- this is baseball at its absolute best.
