I’m going to keep this one short and sweet: Missouri State isn’t going to pose a threat to the Razorbacks and they’ll run away with a five-touchdown win, at least, here. KJ Jefferson will put up over 350 total yards and the game will be over by halftime. A nice confidence-booster heading into a rivalry game.

Prediction: Win (3-0)

The rivalry game that I was speaking of is the annual matchup against Texas A&M at AT&T Stadium in Arlington. These two always give fans a show.

While Texas A&M has owned the rivalry in recent years, the Razorbacks finally got the better of the Aggies last season with a 20-10 shocker. I wouldn’t be shocked to see the same result again this season, but Jimbo Fisher has assembled his best team yet and I think the Aggies are poised to contend for the SEC title. They win this one but it’ll be another classic.

Prediction: Loss (3-1, 1-1)
