SEC teams struggle out west
Southeastern Conference teams invaded Pac-12 territory over the weekend - and didn't have a lot to show for it.
* Mississippi State needed a 7-6 victory over Arizona in Tucson Sunday night to leave the Hi Corbett Classic with a 1-3 record.
* Tennessee beat Arizona State earlier in the day to salvage the finale of a three-game series.
* Arkansas went 1-3 in the Cal Baseball Classic, losing twice to the host Bears on Sunday. That's a good weekend for a Cal program that was on the chopping block a couple of years back.
Eight SEC teams - Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Mississippi, South Carolina and Vanderbilt - went 3-0 over the weekend. Florida's series sweep of Connecticut was an adventure; all three were one-run games. Sunday's took 10 innings. Georgia had two one-run wins in beating Buffalo, North Florida and Western Carolina in a four-team round-robin in Athens.
Kentucky scored 58 runs in three games against Ball State - and went 2-1. The Wildcats lost on Friday, 10-8, won on Saturday, 24-1, and cruised on Sunday, 26-3.
Missouri and Texas A&M went 2-1 against Southern Mississippi and Louisiana Tech, respectively.
