Barrett Sallee at CBS ranks Arkansas’ schedule as fifth easiest in the SEC

After years of an absolute gauntlet, Arkansas’ schedule is a bit easier in 2023.

Playing in the SEC is no joke. In recent years, Arkansas’ schedule had been one of the toughest in the league.

That’s not the case in 2023. At least, not according to CBS.

Barrett Sallee ranked Arkansas’ schedule as the fifth easiest in the conference. And he’s not wrong as the Razorbacks’ nonconference slate isn’t exactly the gauntlet that last year’s was. About the only thing keep Arkansas from having an even easier schedule is that the Hogs’ toughest opponents come on the road.

That also means that Arkansas has just three true SEC home games, which does make things a bit more challenging.

Let’s take a look at each game on the slate in order.
