WKU announces 3-game, multi-sport series with Arkansas

Western Kentucky and Arkansas have agreed to a three-game series over men’s basketball and football which brings the Southeastern Conference’s Razorbacks to E.A. Diddle Arena in 2019-20.

As part of the agreement, the Hilltoppers will travel to Fayetteville, Ark., in 2019 for a single football game and have a home-and-home series in men’s basketball. WKU will travel to Fayetteville during the 2018-19 season in men’s basketball and receive a return visit the following season.

“We are always looking for compelling matchups in our football and men’s basketball schedules, and adding the Arkansas Razorbacks is a very exciting addition for both programs,” athletic director Todd Stewart said in a news release.
