Arkansas is now the only university to have a certified indoor and outdoor facility.

It might not feel like it outside as we deal with a half-foot of snow, but the college baseball season is here.

Musselman’s Razorbacks are gelling at just the right time.

It’s not a must-win game, but it is the type of victory the Hogs need if they want to be better than an eighth or ninth seed in the NCAA Tournament.

It’s going to be interesting if not exciting to see what the Razorbacks can do over the next three weeks with a very challenging but opportunity-laden schedule.

Arkansas now has something to gain by playing ASU, which had not been the case in the past, making the game a win-win proposition for both parties.

The Texas A&M game scheduled for Saturday, Feb. 6 has been postponed due to COVID-19 issues in the Aggies program.

Arkansas and Mississippi State play in a pivotal contest for both squads who are mired in the middle of the pack in the SEC race.

Picking up a road nonconference victory Saturday against a highly regarded opponent like OSU would only lend more legitimacy to the Razorback cause of returning to NCAA Tournament play for the first time since 2017.

There’s a distinct Southwest flavor to the September schedule.

At this juncture, no one game is going to determine Arkansas’ NCAA Tournament fate, but Wednesday’s game is an opportunity the Hogs can’t afford to slip away.

There are no easy games in SEC play, but the Razorbacks’ next four aren’t as daunting as the aforementioned early season gauntlet.

This next game is one the Razorbacks really need to win in an effort to get their season back on track.

About the only thing that can be said good about the Hogs’ performance at LSU is that they did not quit.

It’s a huge week for the Arkansas Razorbacks as they set out on their first of two, two-game SEC road trips this season.

It’s going to be a big game for the Hogs Saturday in Walton Arena.

Sometimes it takes a loss for coaching points to come clearly into focus for players.

With the Hogs sitting at 9-0 for the first time since their national championship season in 1993-94, Walton Arena would be bursting at the seams with fans and anticipation if Covid-19 protocols were not limiting attendance to UA games.

As we get ready for a socially-distanced New Year’s Eve, Eric Musselman’s Razorbacks prep for their SEC basketball season, while Sam Pittman’s Hogs will put the finishing touch on their football season.

The Razorbacks will no doubt be tested in their first three SEC games.
