FAYETTEVILLE – The #15/16 Arkansas Razorbacks return to the road once again to face the Vanderbilt Commodores on Saturday (Jan. 14). Tipoff is set for 1 pm (CT) and the game will be televised on ESPNU.

This will be the 53rd meeting between Arkansas and Vanderbilt. All but 12 have come since Arkansas joined the SEC. The Razorbacks own a 39-13 advantage in the series, including a slight 28-12 margin in SEC meetings.
Arkansas is 8-8 versus the Commodores in Memorial Gym, including an 8-7 mark in SEC games.
While Vanderbilt won last year’s meeting in Bud Walton Arena, Arkansas has won 11 of the last 13 games.
In an SEC scheduling quirk, Arkansas is playing at Vanderbilt for just the fourth time since 2014-15 (12 meetings). Over the last 12 meetings with the Commodores, seven have been at Bud Walton Arena, three have been at Vandy’s Memorial Gym and two have been in Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena for the SEC Tournament.
Arkansas opens SEC play with four of its first six on the road.
Arkansas’ first four SEC opponents (LSU, Missouri, Auburn and Alabama) have each won at least 12 games and won a combined 52-10. That represents the best four-team aggregate win total any team has faced to date.
To end January and open February, Arkansas will play four-of-six games on the road, including the SEC-Big 12 Challenge at Baylor.
The Hogs also wrap the 2022-23 regular season by playing two of the last three on the road (at Alabama and at Tennessee before hosting Kentucky in the finale).
