Doesn't mean much when based on fewer appearances. Coastal Carolina averages 6 wins per CWS appearance.

That's a better stat because both teams have played a lot of games. If LSU, now 39-25, should somehow manage to win the next three to win the CWS, or win tomorrow and win two out of three in the championship series, this would improve to either 42-25 (.627) or 42-26 (.618).
