We’ve finally made it to the end of the regular season and rivalry week is upon us. Once again, Missouri faces their MOST HATED RIVAL THE arKANSAS RAZORBACKS, a team that has frequently and consistently poached Missouri sports talent to fill in their obvious lack of natural talent.
Here’s the preview I wrote back in the summer. Arkansas has had higher highs with the same rebuild timeline as Missouri but has struggled through some recent regression due to injury and suspension. The season-long SP+ rankings have the Tigers and Pigs within 16 spots of each but Arkansas has higher-ranked individual units than Missouri does.
