Arkansas Football: Way-too-early game-by-game predictions for 2021

9. Mississippi State (L)

Similar to their Egg Bowl counterpart Ole Miss, the Bulldogs are sure to see an improvement in their performance as well with their own second-year head coach Mike Leach. His reputation is synonymous with the word “offense”, as he has helped shape the Air Raid scheme into what it is today.

Mississippi State would have to stoop quite low to lose a shootout with Arkansas. They just need to let the ball loose deep downfield and watch their score leave the Razorbacks’ behind.

Record: 2-7 (0-5)

10. LSU (L)

The Tigers took a rather ugly tumble down the stairs of college football hierarchy in 2020 after their outstanding title run the season prior. However, last year ended with LSU winning two consecutive games, looking forward with their heads held high. They own this rivalry, they are at home, and they will be a much better-looking team by this far down the stretch. Arkansas, as they wouldn’t have on many of their games before this point, won’t look back on this one too fondly.

Record: 2-8 (0-6)

11. Alabama (L)

Perhaps a link to Bama’s resume from last season would be enough to put here, as there are no words to describe just how hideously this affair will unfold. Arkansas would absolutely shock the world by just getting in the endzone, or maybe by keeping it within 50.

Record: 2-9 (0-7)

12. Missouri (L)

All it took was a pandemic-stricken schedule for Mizzou to make some strides in the quality of their team’s validity. They finished 5-5 in 2020, and even spent some time ranked. Arkansas hosts this one, but why would they get a hop in their step when heading into their last game after so many victimizations?

Record: 2-10 (0-8)

Arkansas looks to finish their 2021 season with a horrendous yet appropriate 2-10 record, and what just might be the crown for worst team in the SEC. And with the West division showing no signs of giving them a chance, it is a total mystery as to when their luck will change.
