The No. 11 Arkansas Razorbacks (40-9, 17-7 SEC) completed a loud sweep Saturday against the No. 1 Texas Longhorns (38-8, 19-5 SEC) with a 13-8 win at Baum-Walker Stadium in Fayetteville.

With the victory, the Diamond Hogs matched their best 24-game SEC start for the sixth time in program history. The win also marks the seventh 30-win season at Baum-Walker Stadium since it opened in 1996, and it's the first Arkansas sweep over a No. 1 team since 2001.

Earning the starting nod for Arkansas was left-hander Landon Beidelschies, who made it through his usual four innings with four strikeouts, four hits, four earned runs and two walks on 75 pitches. Dylan Carter earned the win behind 2.2 innings of shutout ball and Christian Foutch retired the final four batters with two strikeouts.

Carried by a two-homerun, six-RBI performance by Reese Robinett, Arkansas' offense racked up five homeruns and 10 walks against Texas' pitching staff. Charles Davalan, Kuhio Aloy and Justin Thomas Jr. also notched long balls and the Hogs finished 7-for-22 with runners on base.
