FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — The Arkansas Razorbacks found out their schedule for the next four seasons Tuesday night on a schedule reveal show on the SEC Network.

While the three permanent opponents were revealed yesterday, fans still were in the dark about who their new SEC opponents will be next season, and in this case, the next three seasons. Reportedly, there is a chance the permanent opponents could change after four seasons should there be good reason.

For Arkansas, that means playing LSU, Texas and Missouri each season for at least four years. Texas A&M got the exact same permanent opponents, leaving the Aggies openly wondering Tuesday morning how Mizzou got randomly thrown onto their list.

The biggest surprise was a third game against Tennessee next season, along with back-to-back trips down to Austin to face Texas. The trade-off is getting Missouri at home two years in a row
