The no. 10 Arkansas Razorbacks have one last chance to prove that they are worthy of hosting an NCAA Baseball Regional this week at the SEC Baseball Tournament in Hoover.
They need to have a successful week in Hoover because according to D1Baseball.com’s latest “Field of 64” projections, the Razorbacks are on the outside looking in when it comes to hosting a regional.
As it stands, Arkansas would travel to Stillwater, Okla. as the no. 2 seed in the Stillwater Regional, hosted by Oklahoma State. The Cowboys are currently projected as the no. 15 overall seed, hosting Arkansas, Louisiana Tech, and Davidson in their regional.
Arkansas dropped their final two SEC series, a home series with Vanderbilt, and most recently a road tilt at Alabama. The Commodores enter the SEC Tournament as a the no. 8 seed while Alabama’s series win over the Razorbacks helped propel them to the no. 11 seed.
Arkansas finished 2nd in the SEC West behind Texas A&M, and will open the SEC Tournament with a bye before facing the winner of the Georgia-Alabama contest on Wednesday morning at 9:30 a.m. CDT.
