OXFORD – The Super Regionals may come back to Oxford – if the Ole Miss Rebels can handle their business.

San Francisco eliminated Nebraska, the No. 6 national seed on Saturday afternoon opening the door for the Rebels to host a second straight Super Regional.

If Ole Miss wins its regional championship, they will get the winner of the Lincoln, Neb., Regional. On Friday, Manhattan College defeated Nebraska to send the team into the loser’s bracket. The Huskers were beaten by the Dons on Saturday afternoon, 5-1.
