Where Arkansas baseball ranks in national polls after series win over Ole Miss Rebels
FAYETTEVILLE — College baseball's five major polls are updated to include the results from Week 11, and Arkansas moved up in all of them after its series win over Ole Miss.
The Razorbacks (34-10, 14-7 SEC) remain atop the SEC West after the victory and is two games ahead of second-place Auburn, which it will face in a three-game series starting Friday.
Arkansas claimed the series against Ole Miss after dropping Game 1 on Friday 4-2. A walk-off home run on Saturday and a 4-3 win Sunday lifted the Razorbacks to their fifth SEC series win.
Outfielder Braydon Webb had multiple hits in each game, including two home runs and 4 RBIs, and was named SEC player of the week. Reliever Brady Tygart earned freshman of the week honors with five scoreless innings with seven strikeouts across two games.
Here's where Arkansas ranks in the updated national polls.
