Another home game with some extra sauce for the Razorbacks.
The Hogs will face their first FCS opponent of the season, usually a tune-up game for the next week’s showdown.
Not this time.
The Razorbacks will host the fifth-ranked FCS team, Missouri State, head coach by a familiar face.
Bobby Petrino.
Most of the people who were part of Arkansas when Petrino was caught in a motorcycle crash with his mistress, but the players on both sides will have little motivation for Saturday’s matchup.
Missouri State wants to take down the big SEC school for lifetime bragging rights, but what better way to honor your coach than to win a game against the school that fired him?
For the Hogs, they must defend the home field and not fall victim to the infamous “trap game.”
According to the FPI, the Razorbacks have a 99.2% chance of winning this game, so let’s take a look at some players to watch.
