Tech eventually became the fourth team to be eliminated.

In the CWS after Texas Tech lost to Big 12 rival TCU, none of the three national seeds who had reached Omaha had won their opening game. For the first time since the tournament expanded from 48 teams in 1999, the NCAA did not select any Pac-12 schools to host a regional, and Lubbock, Texas ( Texas Tech) was the westernmost regional host city picked by the selection committee. A tournament-high seven regional hosts came from the Southeastern Conference (SEC), followed by six of the ten ACC schools however, only Miami (ACC) and Florida (SEC) advanced to Omaha, and they were the first and second teams eliminated, respectively. The Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) set a conference record and tied the all-time mark of having ten teams in the championship field. Regional champions faced each other in Super Regionals, a best-of-three-game series to determine the eight participants of the College World Series. Teams were divided into sixteen regionals of four teams, which conducted a double-elimination tournament. Thirty-one teams were awarded an automatic bid, as champions of their conferences the remaining 33 teams were selected at-large by the NCAA Division I Baseball Committee. The 64 participating NCAA Division I college baseball teams were selected out of 298 eligible teams. The 64-team, double-elimination tournament concluded with the 2016 College World Series (CWS) in Omaha, Nebraska, starting on June 18, 2016, and ending on June 30, 2016. This wasn't just the best game of this year's postseason it will likely go down as one of the greatest World Series Games 7 ever played.The 2016 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament began on Friday, June 3, 2016, as part of the 2016 NCAA Division I baseball season. And then there was the 10th-the inning in which the Cubs put two runs on the board thanks to RBI hits from Ben Zobrist and Miguel Montero, then held off a frantic Indians rally to clinch their first title in 108 years. There was the rain delay that gave everyone a chance to catch their breath. There was Rajai Davis's home run in the eighth off of a gassed Aroldis Chapman that capped Cleveland's comeback from a 5–1 deficit and will be remembered as one of the biggest hits in the franchise's long and tortured history. There was a leadoff home run from Chicago's Dexter Fowler, the first ever to start a Game 7, and a homer from 39-year-old David Ross, playing in his last major league game. There were home runs and game-tying rallies and daring base-running plays and questionable managerial decisions and relief outings from starting pitchers. But then there was this 10-inning epic, a bruising slugfest between two teams each looking to end decades of frustration and sadness by capturing the championship that had eluded them for what must have felt like an eternity. Where to start? Just the fact that this game was played-with the Cubs forcing a winner-take-all World Series finale after falling behind 3–1 in the series to the Indians-is incredible enough.
