For the first time since 2016 Arkansas is ranked in the College Football Playoff poll, making their debut at No. 25 on Tuesday night.

The Hogs enter the rankings fresh off a 31-28 victory over Mississippi State, who was ranked No. 17 in the CFP poll last week.

Sam Pittman’s team crosses another milestone off the list having already reached the AP Poll’s Top 10 – reaching as high as No. 8 – for the first time since 2012 and being ranked in both the AP and Coaches polls for the first time since 2016.

Arkansas returns to the road this weekend with a trip to LSU for the Battle of the Boot.

Kickoff is set for 6:30 p.m. on SEC Network.
