NOTES:

This will be the third-straight year Arkansas will face both LSU and Missouri twice as SEC-designated “permanent opponents.” Alabama is the third team Arkansas will play both home and away. In previous years, Texas (2025) and Auburn (2026) were the third team.
Arkansas and LSU have met for a home-and-home series in all but three seasons since the Razorbacks joined the SEC for the 1991-92 season. The Razorbacks and Tigers only met once in 2013 (in Baton Rouge) and just once in 2015 (in Fayetteville). Arkansas leads the Tigers 42-32 since the Razorbacks joined the SEC. Since Arkansas joined the SEC, the Tigers are the Razorbacks’ most common SEC opponent with 74 meetings followed by Ole Miss (63), Mississippi State (62), Auburn (62) and Alabama (61).
Arkansas and Missouri will be playing a home-and-home series for the 15th consecutive year. The streak coincides with the number of years since the Tigers joined the SEC (2012-13). Arkansas leads the all-time series with Missouri, 38-28, and leads 19-10 since Mizzou joined the SEC, including wins in 10 of the last 12 meetings.
The last time Arkansas and Alabama met twice during the regular season was the 202-23 campaign. Alabama swept the series that season, winning 84-69 in Fayetteville and 86-83 in Tuscaloosa. Arkansas holds a one-game advantage over Alabama all-time, 36-35, but trails the Crimson Tide, 32-29, since the Hogs joined the SEC. Alabama has won six straight in the series. In a scheduling quirk, since 2020, Arkansas have played nine times with six of those contests being played in Tuscaloosa.
Arkansas was 8-1 in SEC home games last season. If history is an indicator, the home schedule once again sets up well for Arkansas. The Razorbacks are a combined 166-69 (.706) all-time versus the SEC opponents they will play at home, including 20-8 versus Alabama, 24-6 versus Auburn, 10-8 versus Florida, 15-3 versus Georgia, 26-8 versus LSU, 18-12 versus Ole Miss, 24-9 versus Mississippi State, 21-10 versus Missouri and 8-5 versus Oklahoma.
