With their first SEC game of the season in the rearview mirror, things won’t get easier for the Razorbacks in Week 5 against Georgia.

The Bulldogs are going to be the favorites to win the SEC East this season with JT Daniels leading the offense and they could very well be 4-0 with a win over Clemson heading into this game and potentially pushing for that No. 1 spot in the nation. That’s going to make this road game even more intimidating for a young Arkansas squad.

The Razorbacks will hold their own, but they’ll still lose by three scores. They will make things closer than last season, though.

Final Score: Arkansas 17, Georgia 34 (2-3, 0-2)

Remember when I said things won’t get much easier for Arkansas after kicking off SEC play with Texas A&M? Yeah, I meant it.

Ole Miss will be one of those surprise contenders in the SEC this season thanks to the hype generated by Lane Kiffin and the prolific passing attack led by Matt Corral. The Rebels’ offense might just be the best in the SEC this season and it’s going to help them stay in most games.

Arkansas will put up some points here, but it just won’t be enough.

Final Score: Arkansas 33, Ole Miss 41 (2-4, 0-3)
