We’ve covered college baseball, the tournament and the College World Series over the years here at Legends on Deck.  Several times, I’ve referred to the College World Series as the “most underrated” spectacle in sports.  There’s plenty to be excited about as college baseball steps into the spotlight throughout the next month.

The Road to Omaha begins this week!
