FAYETTEVILLE — It looked like the Arkansas Razorbacks and Nebraska Cornhuskers would go into the ninth inning tied in their NCAA regional championship game.

The Razorbacks had two outs and no runners on base.

University of Arkansas center fielder Christian Franklin — who was 0 for 9 against the Cornhuskers in three regional games with eight strikeouts — was down 1-2 to reliever Koty Frank.
