The day has finally arrived. Arkansas is playing an in-state school. Women’s basketball and baseball have already done so, but this feels different. This feels like a different era in Arkansas Athletics. Maybe we will see Arkansas State, Little Rock, and Arkansas-Pine Bluff on the schedule in the coming years.
This is the first time since 1950 that Arkansas Men’s basketball has scheduled a regular season game against an in-state school.
