Fayetteville, Ark. – No. 19 Nebraska pushed top-ranked Arkansas to the brink, but the Razorbacks used a two-out, eighth-inning rally to break open a 2-2 deadlock and punched their ticket to the Super Regional with a 6-2 victory Monday evening at Baum-Walker Stadium.
Nebraska, which reached the regional final round for the first time since 2007, jumped out to a 2-0 lead before Arkansas closer Kevin Kopps slammed the door with seven shutout innings of relief to improve to 12-0 on the season.
With the loss, the Huskers end their season with a 34-14 record after nearly becoming the fourth team since 1999 to knock off the No.
