All 6 were Omaha. CWS moved to Omaha in 1950. We've been 12 times, they've been 6. They've only been 3 times in the past 50 years (1972, 2014, 2022). They also went in 56, 64, and 69.

So that's really only twice in 50 years.
And they cheated to get to Omaha in 1972. That was when they were using swimming scholarships for baseball players.

Will Rogers Grand Dad was a pitcher for that team. I think Arch Manning's Grand Dad was a third basemen.

Archie wasn't on the '72 team. He was on the '69 CWS team I believe
"After dealing with Ole Miss for over a year," he said, "I've learned to expect their leadership to do and say things that the leadership at other Division I schools would never consider doing and to justify their actions by reminding themselves that "We're Ole Miss.""

Ole Dixie 72 team was a very good team. All hell broke out in Left Field Lounge when they came to The Dude. Back then trucks and cars were everywhere in the “Lounge” that night. It was estimated close to 9k that night. Ripple Wine and PBR beer everywhere, you had to drive to Crossroads or Columbus to get liquor.

1972 was 51 seasons ago. They have only been twice in the last 50 seasons

I also remember when the first lights were put and attended the first ever night game at the Dudy. I forgot the donors name, but he gave 100K for the lights.
Dutch McCool was the donor.
