Here's Arkansas' newly released SEC basketball schedule. All times are Eastern. The non-conference schedule, which was released a couple of days ago, is underneath.
A few notes: we knew the Hogs would get home-and-homes with Missouri, LSU, and Texas A&M, but Arkansas has also drawn Tennessee and Mississippi State as the home-and-home opponents on rotation.
Also, the Hogs are opening up SEC play in College Station for the third time in four years. I don't know why that seems to be a thing. The Aggies blew out Arkansas the last couple of times that happened. It's also earlier than usual, starting on January 2nd.
Arkansas only has one Thursday/Saturday situation. They host Kentucky on January 21st and then turn around and travel to Athens for a Saturday evening game against Georgia.
The Razorbacks have two back-to-back road games. The first at Missouri and at LSU, then at Tennessee and at Alabama at the end of the year. The Hogs do get three straight games at Bud Walton against Auburn, Missouri, and LSU in late February.
