The Arkansas Razorbacks (4-8, 1-7 SEC) finished off their season with a 48-14 loss to the Missouri Tigers at Reynolds Razorback Stadium last week, and now head coach Sam Pittman will turn his focus to building his roster for 2024.
After beginning the season 2-0, the Hogs dropped six straight games before getting back in the win column with a win at Florida — the first in program history in Gainesville.
Following a a blowout loss to Auburn the next week, the Hogs closed the season out with a win against FIU and the loss to Missouri.
The numbers were not pretty offensively all season, but the defense had its bright spots. With the Razorbacks unable to qualify for a bowl game, the stats and Pro Football Focus grade rankings are all but locked in for the Hogs.
