No. 1 Ole Miss baseball torches No. 9 Texas, 8-1, to close out dominating weekend

Derek Diamond cooked. Trey LaFleur hit a piss-missile home run. The Rebs are back.

Shortly after being crowned the new No. 1 team in the land by Baseball America, Ole Miss completed a sweep of its action in the State Farm College Baseball Showdown in Arlington with an 8-1 win over the Texas Longhorns.

Ole Miss was ranked No. 6 according to D1Baseball coming into the weekend and will likely be a top-three team, if not No. 1, in that poll come tomorrow morning.

I’m not going to lie—coming into this weekend, I expected the Rebs to take some lumps.
