STARKVILLE, Miss. -- Down 5-0 in the bottom of the sixth inning, the last-place team in the SEC West turned the tables on the division front runners.

Luke Alexander hit a three-run home run off University of Arkansas, Fayetteville ace Blaine Knight in the sixth, and the game unraveled on the Hogs (28-11, 10-6 SEC) in the bottom of the eighth of a 6-5 loss to Mississippi State (20-19, 6-10 SEC) at Dudy Noble Field.

With a strong possibility of thunderstorms in the forecast for Sunday, the Razorbacks and Bulldogs will play a doubleheader Saturday starting at noon.
