Tennessee is coming off a bye week after starting the season 4-0 and most recently beating Oklahoma, 25-15, on Sept. 21. Arkansas dropped a game to Texas A&M, 21-17, last weekend and the Razorbacks will be playing just their second game of the season at home.
"Excited to be back home," head coach Sam Pittman said Monday. "Somehow our schedule has been that way the last couple of years, but now we have five of the next seven at home, so we’re excited about that. Especially for a night game. I think we have two in a row coming up.
"Tennessee is a really good team. Top of the nation in a lot of categories. Both offensively and defensively. I think defensively they’re very, very stout up front. Have a really good secondary, linebackers. I think kind of a common theme over the last couple of weeks that their defensive line is probably the strength of their defense as well as what A&M’s was, what Auburn’s was. So that’ll be a big challenge for us."
