Yes, Arkansas is going to win this game. No, I don’t feel like it’s necessary to explain why, but I will.

FIU is being invited to be a punching bag for the Razorbacks in late November as they prepare to end the season against Missouri and get some confidence back after a stretch that included Alabama, LSU, Florida, and Texas A&M.

Anger from the previous losses will be taken out on the Panthers.

Prediction: Win (7-4)

Missouri hasn’t improved much under Eli Drinkwitz and this may be a make or break season for the fourth-year head coach. He won five games in 2020 followed by back-to-back 6-7 seasons in 2021 and 2022. Not great if you’re going to try and make noise in the SEC.

Unfortunately for Missouri, they won’t be able to finish over .500 yet again as Arkansas will take care of business in the season finale with relative ease.

I see this being a huge send-off game for KJ Jefferson and Rocket Sanders.

Prediction: Win (8-4, 4-4)
