FAYETTEVILLE -- The Arkansas Razorbacks enter the penultimate weekend of a rough season with a looming historic first.
The Razorbacks (2-8, 0-6 SEC) are 44-point underdogs for Saturday's 6 p.m. game at No. 1 LSU (10-0, 6-0). For the first time ever, the University of Arkansas will play a No. 1-ranked team twice in the same season.
Defending SEC champion Alabama was No. 1 in The Associated Press poll when the Razorbacks lost 48-7 to the Crimson Tide on Oct. 26 in Tuscaloosa, Ala.
LSU rose to No. 1 in the AP poll on Oct. 27, the day after beating Auburn 23-20.
