Razorback Brew 3/12: Top Hogs

Today, Arkansas is atop the college baseball landscape.

Good Morning. Winning 10 games in a row is hard to do in any sport, let alone baseball. That’s what the Diamond Hogs are trying to do tonight against a program they’ve faced over 100 times in the past. We’ll preview Arkansas’ latest matchup, and get you updated from the links as well.

Here’s what we have for in today’s Brew:

🎥 Off the diamond fun
⚾️ We’re No. 1
🐗 And so much more! 

🎥 CHILLIN WITH THE BOYS

Hog Vlog. Arkansas is now the top-ranked team in college baseball, and we think they’re pretty fun off the diamond as well.

Pitcher Will McEntire takes fans behind the scenes of the Diamond Hogs' recent trip to Arlington for the Kubota College Baseball Series. Inside the road trip, the team hotel, and Globe Life Field — you have special access throughout. Plus, an interview with Hagen Smith after his historic performance that you don't want to miss.

📈 STOCK UP

🔺 Top Hogs. There’s a new No. 1 team in college baseball, and they play in Fayetteville. Arkansas is the top-ranked ball club in four of the five major polls this week, including D1Baseball, following another weekend series sweep at home.

Arkansas is back in action at Baum-Walker Stadium this afternoon to take on Oral Roberts at 6pm on SEC Network Plus. The Diamond Hogs are not only 70-35 all-time against ORU, the’ve won 10 consecutive games in the series since 2009.

🔺 Even Keeled. Two members of the ninth-ranked Arkansas men’s golf team sit inside the top 10 after 36 holes at the 14-team Seminole Intercollegiate. Jacob Skov Olesen posted a second-round 65 that has him tied for 2nd place at 7-under, and John Driscoll III is tied for 8th with two 71s on the scorecard thus far. The Hogs as a team are in fourth place on the team leaderboard at even par entering today’s final round action.

🔺 Bracket Time. Arkansas men’s basketball kicks off its run in the SEC Tournament tomorrow night against 13th-seed Vanderbilt in Nashville. The Hogs are 4-3 all-time under head coach Eric Musselman in SEC Tournament play, with their first win coming back in 2019 against none other than the Commodores. Tip-off tomorrow is at 6pm on SEC Network.

🔺 A Balance Act. Hogs+ producer and host Tera Talmadge sat down with Razorback gymnast, Maddie Jones, to talk about her journey on The Hill and life outside the gym. From making the call to Arkansas herself as a young gymnast to becoming part of the digital staff for the Hogs football team, Maddie is pulling off a balancing act.
