Concerned Razorback fans should know Dave Van Horn right with them

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — You shouldn't feel alone in this sudden worry over the Arkansas Razorbacks' pitching staff. What everybody was thinking a few weeks ago this would carry the Hogs to Omaha and bringing home a trophy now are having to re-adjust those expectations.

"I don’t know. I have no idea. You would probably have to talk to him about it," Van Horn said Saturday night because it looked like he had no idea where his fastball was going. "I didn’t see the fastball go over the plate much at all." Tygart wasn't anywhere near the press conference after that game. Ben Bybee came in to relieve him in the second inning and that was another adventure.

Now the ball will get handed to Mason Molina on Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m. in the rubber match of the three-game series on the SEC Network. The Hogs need to win to avoid blowing the SEC West in the final two weeks of the season when they travel to Texas A&M next week. "Molina walked a few the last couple of weeks and if it goes that way tomorrow he won’t be in there very long," Van Horn said. "We just want him to throw it over the plate. If they hit it, they hit it. We walked nine guys in the first three or four innings and we still had a chance to win the game, which is amazing, honestly, thanks to a couple of guys coming out of the pen and doing a really good job.

Saturday night, Tygart and Bybee together barely stumbled through combining for four innings, but gave up eight runs, digging a deep hole. Smith at least got four innings and only allowed three runs, which is considerably past what fans saw earlier in the year.
