We just discussed the Razorbacks preseason national rankings a week ago and now the media has picked Arkansas to finish 4th in the SEC Western division. Alabama was picked to win the West, with Auburn receiving the most votes to take the SEC Championship.
Arkansas received only 6 votes to win the West, but it’s not all bad news for the Razorbacks. The SEC media prediction has only been correct five times in the last 23 years. Hog fans are probably curious as to why we’re only ranked 4th out of 7 teams in the Western division too.
