Needing a series win to keep post season hopes alive, Alabama was swept by Arkansas this weekend, three games to none. The Tide fell to 23-24 on the season, with a 8-16 SEC mark.
The Arkansas Razorbacks came to town on a hot streak, having won five of their seven SEC series. The Hogs have been winning despite being ranked dead last in the 14-team SEC in most pitching statistics. This weekend, Arkansas won all three games with strong pitching holding the Tide to five total runs.
Game One: Lost 5-1
Taylor Guilbeau took his normal opening game start and pitched seven innings, keeping the Tide in position to pull out a win.
