1963 College World Series
Southern California over Arizona at Johnny Rosenblatt Stadium.
What happened. Southern California won the 1963 College World Series, beating Arizona in the final, under Rod Dedeaux. It was played at Johnny Rosenblatt Stadium, Omaha.
Where it sits. The 4th of 12 for Southern California. Their second in 2 years, so this was a program at the top of the sport rather than a program having a season. Arizona lost this one and won its own in 1976.
What the tournament looked like that year. Eight teams, one pure double elimination bracket. The classic Rosenblatt format. That format ran from 1950 through 1987.
The ballpark. Sixty-one tournaments. The reason Omaha means what it means.
