The Hogs have their kickoff slot for the Tennessee game.
The SEC announced Monday that the Arkansas Tennessee game time is 3:15 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 10.
SEC Network will carry the broadcast.
It’s the week six game on the Razorbacks’ 2026 schedule.
A mid-afternoon start means fans get the whole morning to fire up the grill. Nobody’s complaining about that.
It also means folks watching at home won’t have to stay up late to see how it ends.
Tennessee owns a 14-7 lead in the all-time series.
Recent history leans toward Arkansas
This will be the 22nd time these two programs have met.
The Vols’ edge on paper is real. The last decade and a half tells a different story, though.
Arkansas has won four of the past five matchups dating back to 2011.
That’s quite a turnaround for a series Tennessee still leads by seven games.
Fayetteville has been especially kind to the Hogs. They’ve taken the last four meetings played there.
The most recent of those came on Oct. 5, 2024.
That day, the Razorbacks knocked off a fourth-ranked Tennessee squad 19-14.
First up is a trip to College Station
There’s business to handle before anybody starts thinking about the Vols.
Arkansas travels to face longtime rival Texas A&M on Saturday, Oct. 3.
Kickoff at Kyle Field in College Station, Texas, is set for 6 p.m. ESPN2 has the call.
That’s a night game one week and an afternoon game the next. The body clock is going to get a workout.
The Hogs head south feeling good about themselves.
They closed out non-conference play with a 34-6 win over Tulsa at Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium.
Back to conference play
Holding an opponent to six points is never a bad sign.
Now it’s back to SEC play, where the scoreboard tends to be a little less friendly.
Get through College Station, and the Vols are waiting at 3:15 p.m. on SEC Network.
