Kickoff time for Arkansas’ game vs Mississippi State is in

Arkansas will be seeking its third straight win over the Bulldogs.

The SEC announced kickoff times for Week 6 games across the league Monday around lunchtime.

Prepare to rise early.

Arkansas and Mississippi State will play at 11 a.m. CT on SEC Network. The game is one of three kickoffs in conference play at that hour on that day.

The game is the second at that hour the Hogs have played this year. Arkansas hosted South Carolina in Week 2 from Fayetteville before lunch and won, 44-30. The Razorbacks play Alabama in Week 5 in the afternoon CBS game.

Arkansas is coming off its first loss of the season Saturday against Texas A&M, 23-21. The Hogs haven’t beaten Alabama since 2007.

On the other side, Arkansas will be seeking its third straight win over Mississippi State. Mike Leach has never beaten Sam Pittman.

Arkansas will get foundering Texas A&M in primetime for Southwest Classic

The nation will be watching when Arkansas takes on Texas A&M in primetime on ESPN.

Enough with the afternoon and morning kickoffs. The nation wants to watch.

Arkansas will get its chance to show its stuff to an audience across the country in primetime in Week 4 when the Razorbacks travel to Arlington, Texas, to play Texas A&M in the Southwest Classic. Kickoff is scheduled for 6 p.m. and the game will air on ESPN.

The Hogs are ranked No. 10 in FBS in the Associated Press poll heading into Week 3’s game against Missouri State. Texas A&M fell 18 spots to No. 24 after the Aggies lost to Appalachian State on Saturday.

Arkansas snapped a nine-game skid against its old Southwest Conference rivals last year in a 20-10 win. Two days later, the Hogs were the No. 8 team in the country upon a 4-0 start.

Things could similar this year. Missouri State won’t exactly be a pushover, though. Bobby Petrino’s team is the No. 6 team in FCS. The energy surrounding the game is likely to be high, too, considering its Petrino’s first trip back to Fayetteville since the motorcycle incident.

Still, the A&M kickoff announcement is proof the college football world is taking the Hogs seriously.
