What Arkansas baseball fans need to know about Tennessee
There are no shortage of juicy storylines for this SEC matchup with a trip to Omaha on the line.
Tennessee is the reigning national champion, led by former Arkansas assistant Tony Vitello. The Vols spent most of the year ranked inside the top-five of the USA TODAY Coaches Poll, but they lost their final five weekend series of the regular season. That cost Tennessee the chance to host a super regional.
The last of those weekend defeats came to Arkansas. The Hogs dropped the series opener before rallying to win the final two games thanks to a dominant bullpen.
Tennessee is led by SEC Pitcher of the Year Liam Doyle and a deep lineup that features seven players with at least 10 home runs. First baseman Andrew Fischer leads the SEC with 24 long balls.
