Baylor s third and last team to make the College World Series broke a 28-year drought in 2005 by becoming the second team (Kansas in 1993) ever to reach the CWS one year after a losing season. The 2005 squad never lost more than two straight games, shared the Big 12 regular season title with Nebraska and earned the nation s fourth overall seed in the NCAA Tournament. The Bears hosted and won their regional and super regional events to advance to the CWS, where they fell short but did pick up the program s first-ever CWS win by topping Oregon State in 10 innings. The 2005 Bears (46-24, 19-8 Big 12) finished ranked fourth nationally, the program s highest final ranking ever.
