The Hogs will have more passion and less nerves for Texas. They always do. There should be respect for the Longhorns, as always, but I don’t think Steve Sarkisian has had enough time to build a monster. The real Treylon Burks arrives. Defense will rule the night and it will be mostly Barry Odom’s unit in charge. Arkansas, 20-17

I was not overly impressed with either team, but think the Longhorns are a step ahead. Texas, 24-14

One of the most anticipated home games in years is sure to be memorable. I think Arkansas’ defense comes to play and makes things hard on Texas quarterback Hudson Card and running back Bijan Robinson. But I’m a bit concerned about the status of the Razorbacks’ passing game and execution on special teams. Texas, 28-20

Arkansas will likely need a better passing performance to beat Texas. The Longhorns held Louisiana-Lafayette to 2.6 yards per carry, and Steve Sarkisian’s offense looked good in his debut. Texas, 28-17
Tommy Craft, ESPN Arkansas
The Hogs need to be in mid-season form to beat Texas and earn Sam Pittman his first signature win. Special teams play and penalties must be greatly improved this week to have a chance in the fourth quarter. Texas, 35-28
Tye Richardson, ESPN Arkansas
This team can finally move on to the game everyone has had circled for months. The result will be unfortunate for everyone wearing red. Texas, 34-31

They say teams make their biggest improvement from Week 1 to Week 2. And if that’s the case, the Razorbacks are going to have a real chance to knock off a ranked team for the first time since 2016. Arkansas, 31-28
