Arkansas was on a bye last week, with Sam Pittman’s team sitting at 2-2 following a home victory over Ole Miss on Oct. 17.
Pittman has done well in his first season in charge in Fayetteville: the Razorbacks hung in with Georgia to open the season before the Bulldogs pulled away, followed by a win at Mississippi State to break a 20-game SEC losing skid. After a controversial loss at Auburn, they bounced back with their win over the Rebels at Razorback Stadium.
Arkansas is back at it on Saturday as it looks to pull off a major upset of No. 8 Texas A&M at Kyle Field, with the annual “Southwest Classic” between the former Southwest Conference foes moved from its normal site of AT&T Stadium in Arlington to College Station this year. The Aggies slipped past Vanderbilt to open the season before being blown out at Alabama, but have won their past 2, including a last-second win over Florida and a 28-14 win at Mississippi State on Oct. 17.
On Friday evening, the Razorbacks released their hype video ahead of Saturday’s game in College Station, kicking off at 6:30 p.m. CT and airing on the SEC Network. You can view it below:
