1. Arkansas wins on a last-second field goal

Ole Miss can put points on the board. Arkansas can keep up with even some of the better teams in the conference as it showed last weekend at Auburn. This one will be interesting.

Sure, Ole Miss is a “hang 100 on ’em” type of team but Arkansas likes to muck things up and make things interesting against teams that it probably has no business competing with. Ole Miss might be the fairest battle to date as the Razorbacks have faced three straight ranked teams to start the year, beating one (Mississippi State) and nearly beating another (Auburn).

Arkansas should be 2-1 right now with a road win over Auburn. Who the heck would have seen that start to the season happening after going winless in SEC play since 2017? Not me.

Sam Pittman has this team playing at a high level and Feleipe Franks seems to be turning a corner at quarterback. He’ll be the perfect guy to lead the Razorbacks against a tough Ole Miss team and they’ll pull off a last-second win via field goal.

Arkansas wins a tight one, 37-34.
