2024 COLLEGE WORLD SERIES

College World Series: Which school has the most NCAA baseball national championships in history?

The 2024 College World Series offers us new faces, teams who have won before, and those who are the perennial bridesmaid, but never the bride.

College World Series: Which school has the most NCAA baseball national championships in history?

The college baseball season has now come down to Omaha. With the Kentucky Wildcats making their first ever appearance in the Collegiate Show, this is a year to remember already. They will square off with North Carolina State in Game 3, as North Carolina, Virginia, Florida, Texas A&M, Tennessee, and Florida State join the party.

Most College World Series wins

The USC Trojans haven’t held the trophy since 1998, and even then, it had been a twenty-year gap since the previous time that they had held it. But thanks in no small part to the dynasty created in the 1970s by legendary coach Rod Dedeaux, the Trojans stand head and shoulders above all other college baseball programs when it comes to College World Series wins.

Southern Cal have claimed 12 College World Series titles, including a record five straight from 1970-74. No other team in CWS history has won more than two consecutive. Dedeaux took only a symbolic $1 salary from the University and turned down many opportunities to coach in the Major Leagues. He was named Coach of the Century by Baseball America and Collegiate Baseball, and was the skipper who developed more than 200 pro players and 59 major leaguers, including such top stars as Tom Seaver, Mark McGwire, Randy Johnson, Fred Lynn, Dave Kingman, Roy Smalley, Don Buford, Ron Fairly, Rich Dauer, Steve Busby, Jim Barr and Steve Kemp.

After USC, the next in line is obviously LSU, which has claimed seven titles in its history. LSU’s run under the legendary Skip Bertman through the 1990′s made them the team to beat for a decade. Below that sits Texas with six wins.
