FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas players weren't dejected after letting LSU off the hook last weekend.
They were mad.
Mad about letting the Tigers climb back into a game they trailed by seven runs on Saturday. Mad about not coming through offensively on Sunday. Mad about playing better than one of college baseball's most storied programs - a rival, no less - for much of the weekend, only to lose a series for the first time all year.
"For 16 innings, we kicked butt," Arkansas coach Dave Van Horn said. "Then for two innings (Saturday) it didn't happen and the next day they made four really good plays, and their pitcher never really threw the ball over the middle of the plate and they got us.
