Analysis
Action will begin on Tuesday, with the second elimination game at this year's College World Series.
The Texas Longhorns lost 11-5 on Sunday when Arkansas exploded for eight runs in the bottom of the sixth innings.
They'll likely turn to junior Chase Shugart (15 GS, 6-3, 4.37 ERA, 90.2 IP) on the mound with the season on the line. The right-hander was a 12th-round pick by the Boston Red Sox, and he threw six strong innings against Tennessee Tech in the Super Regionals last time out.
Also looking to avoid elimination will be Florida, the No. 1 team in the nation during the regular season.
The Gators lost to Texas Tech by a score of 6-3 on Sunday, as the Red Raiders tagged Florida ace Brady Singer for nine hits and five runs (two earned) over 6.1 innings of work.
Next up in the rotation for Florida is No. 33 overall pick Jackson Kowar (17 GS, 9-5, 3.24 ERA, 105.2 IP), as the Gators will look to keep their hopes of repeating as national champions alive.
That game will be followed by the two winners from Sunday's slate of games.
After exploding for 11 runs against Texas, the Arkansas Razorbacks will look to keep things rolling against a dangerous Texas Tech offense.
Kacey Murphy (15 GS, 8-5, 3.12 ERA, 92.1 IP) is the probable starter for Arkansas, while Caleb Kilian (10 GS, 9-2, 3.04 ERA, 68.0 IP) looks like the guy for Texas Tech.
Texas Tech (8.2 RPG, third in NCAA) had one of the most dangerous offenses in the nation, while Arkansas (3.57 ERA, 29th in NCAA) was one of the best pitching teams in the country.
