The Arkansas football team has completed the 2021 regular season and will now get an opportunity to compete in a bowl game for the first time in half-a-decade.
Before we find out which Bowl Game the Hogs will be getting an invite to, we are starting to ask ourselves if superstar wide receiver Treylon Burks will opt-out of playing in the bowl game or if he will put on that Razorback uniform one more time?
For those just tuning in, Burks has a not-so hard decision to make about his future as a Razorback. He has one more year of eligibility to play for the Hogs, but he is a surefire bet to be selected in the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft and earn a life-changing amount of money.

So, he’s got a real decision to make in the next week or two, should he play or should he opt-out of the Hogs Bowl Game?
We’ve laid out reasoning for Burks to sit out of the game and a reasons for him to play.
