Kickoff is at 6:30 p.m. at Razorback Stadium and the game is on ESPN2. The weather should be great. You can listen to the pregame show from the Stadium Shoppe on Razorback Road with Tye Richardson, Tommy Craft and Christian Johnston presented by the Stadium Shoppe and KC Insurance Partners.
You can listen to the game on ESPN Arkansas 99.5 in Fayetteville, 95.3 in the River Valley, 96.3 in Hot Springs and 104.3 in Harrison-Mountain Home. After the game the postgame show begins when the network broadcast decides to wrap up (probably about 11 p.m.), then Derek Ruscin, Zach Arns and DQ will be talking about the game. That is presented by the Teague Law Firm and Signature Bank.
