The Oxford Regional is paired with the Fayetteville Regional<\/strong>, hosted by No. 5 national seed Arkansas<\/strong>. The winner of the Fayetteville Regional and Oxford Regional will meet in the Super Regionals. Should Arkansas advance out of its regional, it will have the right to host the Super Regional as the higher overall seed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The No. 7 seed in the tournament, Ole Miss reeled off four wins, playing six games in six days. The Rebels claimed three wins over top-15 teams and went down to the final out before falling in walk-off fashion to Vanderbilt, the SEC\u2019s No. 1 seed\u2014and the NCAA Tournament\u2019s No. 2 national seed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
