FAYETTEVILLE — When you put two Power 5 conference champions together in the same NCAA baseball regional, you expect fireworks.
That happened Monday night as SEC champion Arkansas hit Big Ten champion Nebraska with a two-out, four-spot in the eighth inning to take a 6-2 win and the NCAA Fayetteville Regional title.
The win before 11,084 fans at Baum-Walker Stadium pushed the Razorbacks (49-11) into a super regional this weekend against North Carolina State (33-17).
