Tennessee football will play Arkansas in another primetime night game on Oct. 5.
The game in Fayetteville, Arkansas, will kick off at either 7 p.m. or 7:30 p.m. ET on ESPN or ABC, the SEC announced on Monday. The precise time and network will be announced after the Sept. 28 games.
The Vols (4-0, 1-0 SEC) should be well rested for that trip after taking off this week, following a 25-15 road win over Oklahoma.
Tennessee lost 24-13 at Arkansas in 2020. But that wasn’t the full experience of Razorbacks gameday because only 16,500 were permitted to attend the game due to COVID-19 restrictions.
The Vols hold a 13-6 all-time record against Arkansas, but the Razorbacks have won three straight (2011, 2015, 2020) in the series.
ADAMS The way Tennessee is playing its strength of schedule might not matter
Tennessee is ranked No. 5 in the AP Top 25 and No. 6 in the US LBM Coaches Poll. By Oct. 5, it should be higher because top-4 teams Georgia and Alabama play on Saturday, so the loser will drop behind undefeated Tennessee.
Arkansas (3-1, 1-0) got a few votes in both polls this week after beating Auburn 24-14. On Saturday, the Razorbacks will host No. 24 Texas A&M to try to make an impression on poll voters before the Tennessee game.
