The NCAA baseball tournament selection show just released the field of 64. Yesterday, Arkansas was informed that they would host a regional, but the hog had to wait until today to find out if they were a top–8 seed and who they would face in Fayetteville regional.

Razorbacks were awarded the No. 5 national seed, giving the program its fifth top-8 seed in the last six seasons. The hogs will face No. 4 seed Southeastern Missouri in the first game of the regional. On the other side of the bracket, No. 2 seed Louisiana Tech will face No. 3 seed Kansas State.

If the hogs were to win their region, they would face the winner of the Charlottesville regional hosted by Virginia. It includes Penn, St. John, and Arkansas's final regular season series win, Mississippi State.

The Diamond Hogs and SEMO are scheduled for 2 P.M. CST on ESPN Plus.
