Pregame Notes
Jacob Nesbit is getting the start at third base, and hitting in the 9 hole, for Arkansas on Friday, while Zack Gregory is getting the nod in left field. That means Cullen Smith and Braydon Webb will at least start the game on the bench.
Cael Baker is starting at first base for Ole Miss, replacing the injured Tim Elko.
Full lineups are listed below.
