The Huskers jumped out to a 2-0 lead before Razorbacks closer Kevin Kopps threw seven innings of scoreless relief. The game was tied at 2-2 with two outs in the bottom of the eighth, when Arkansas rallied for four runs, capped off by a pinch-hit, three-run homer.
With the loss, NU wound up with a 34-14 record. Number-one national seed and top-ranked Arkansas is 49-11. The Razorbacks will host NC State in a super regional this weekend.
Other clubs moving on to super regionals last night: LSU, Mississippi State, Ole Miss, Stanford, Dallas Baptist and Cinderella South Florida, which was a number-4 seed in regional play.
