Big moment for Rebels
Here’s the Brady Slavens ground out induced by Dylan DeLucia to escaped a two-runner jam in the seventh, Arkansas’ best scoring threat of the afternoon. DeLucia is now through eight innings for Ole Miss. The Rebels are three outs away from a trip to the CWS championship series.

Ole Miss adds to its lead
Ole Miss leads Arkansas 2-0 in the middle of the seventh after Calvin Harris singled home Tim Elko. Quite a duel, as promised, between Connor Noland and Dylan DeLucia. DeLucia, the Rebels’ junior right-hander, has thrown 70 pitches and allowed three hits through six innings on the mound.

Scoreless through two innings
Scoreless after two innings at the College World Series. This game, the third in four days between Ole Miss and Arkansas, marks the sixth time since 2018 that they’ve split the first two of three games in short order.
The Razorbacks have won the past three decisive matchups.

Strong matchup on the mound with Sooners waiting
Great pitching matchup ahead. The real winner today, arguably, is Oklahoma, which likely gets to avoid facing an ace pitcher until Monday — if the championship series goes to a third game and the Sooners’ SEC foe chooses to bring one of these arms back on very short rest

Rebels' pitchers getting the job done
Ole Miss’ pitching continues to shine in the postseason. In eight NCAA Tournament games, the Rebels have allowed 20 total runs (an average of 2.5 per game). During the regular season, Ole Miss allowed 20 runs or more in four of 10 SEC series (and 19 in another).

Feast or famine
Arkansas’ pitching has been very good … or very bad in the postseason. The Razorbacks have allowed three runs or fewer in seven of 10 NCAA Tournament games and 12 or more runs in the other three games. Since falling into the losers' bracket with a 13-5 loss to Ole Miss on Monday, Arkansas has allowed a total of three runs and nine hits in wins over Auburn (11-1) and Ole Miss (3-2).
