Arkansas Razorbacks Set Kickoff Windows for Final Eight Games

The Arkansas Razorbacks have set their kickoff windows for the final eight games of the 2026 season. The team will host Tulsa on September 26 in the first night game of the season at 7 p.m. on SEC Network+. The Razorbacks and Hurricane will meet on the gridiron for the first time since a 23-0 Arkansas victory in 2018. The Southeastern Conference will use kickoff time windows that feature four time slots: Early (11 a.m.-Noon CT), Afternoon (2:30-3:30 p.m. CT), Night (5-7 p.m. CT) and Flex (2:30-7 p.m. CT). Game time windows will be converted to kickoff times six days prior to the game. Flex games will encompass the Afternoon and Night windows before being assigned a window 12 days prior to the game. All four games during the month of October for Arkansas will be in the Flex window, beginning at Texas A&M on October 3. The trip to Kyle Field will be the first for the Razorbacks since the pandemic-shortened season of 2020. The Hogs return home on October 10 to take on Tennessee with kickoff set in the Flex window. The Vols return to Razorback Stadium for the first time since 2024 when Arkansas topped the College Football Playoff-bound No. 4 Volunteers 19-14. A rare trip to Vanderbilt awaits the Razorbacks on October 17 with kickoff once again in the Flex window. The Hogs' visit to Vandy will be the first since 2011 when Arkansas rallied to beat the Commodores 31-28 en route to an 11-win season. The Razorbacks close out October with a homecoming showdown against rival Missouri on October 31 with kickoff set for 2:30-7 p.m. (Flex window). The Hogs will open a new month with a new kickoff time window at Auburn on November 7 with kick time in the Early window (11 a.m.-Noon). Arkansas has won each of the team's last two games on The Plains. South Carolina makes their way to Fayetteville on November 14 with kickoff time set for the Flex window. The Gamecocks and Razorbacks are set to square off for the first time since 2022 and just the third time since 2013. Arkansas closes out the season with back-to-back rivalry games beginning with a return trip to Texas on November 21 with kickoff set for the Afternoon window (2:30-3:30 p.m.). The Hogs will play in Austin for the second consecutive season marking the first time since the 1916 and 1917 seasons the two programs have met in Austin in consecutive years. The Battle for the Golden Boot returns to its traditional place on the schedule for Arkansas and LSU, the final weekend of the regular season on November 28. Kickoff is set for the Early window (11 a.m.-Noon).
