Auburn and Arkansan play on Saturday, Oct. 29. The game will be live streamed on fuboTV (free trial).
The Auburn Tigers will try to snap a three-game losing streak when KJ Jefferson and Arkansas visit. The Razorbacks recently halted their own three-game skid with a win over BYU. The teams are tied with Texas A&M at the bottom of the Southestern Conference Western Division with 1-3 league records.
Jefferson directs the nation’s No. 9 rushing offense led by league leader Raheim Sanders. Both teams are coming off open dates. It could be a tough matchup for the Auburn defense, which has been struggling against the run.
Both teams are trying to turn around their seasons and rise from the bottom of the SEC West standings (along with Texas A&M).
The Razorbacks, who spent two weeks ranked No. 10 in September, snapped a three-game losing streak against BYU.
Coach Bryan Harsin’s Tigers have now dropped three games in a row, further damaging his already tenuous job security.
