Arkansas football vs Pac-12
The Pac-12 is another power conference that Arkansas has barely played in their history. The Razorbacks are just 4-6-1 in their history against this league and have never faced seven of its current members.
One surprising name on the list is Colorado, who never had a matchup with the Razorbacks despite sharing some rivals from their times in the SWC or Big 12. On a similar note, Arkansas hasn’t faced off against Utah, who only joined the league a decade ago after a long stretch in the Mountain West, though that’ll change when they play in Salt Lake City in 2026.
Many of the west coast schools haven’t found their way onto Arkansas’s schedule. They’ve had a few bowl games against UCLA and some matchups with Arizona State and USC over the years, but Arkansas has not played Arizona, Oregon, Oregon State, Washington, or Washington State at any point in their history.
Arkansas football vs Mountain West
Continuing our west coast theme, the Razorbacks are actually 15-3 against the current members of the Mountain West but have yet to play four of those schools. They’ve won multiple games against Boise State, New Mexico, and a few other programs, but these teams are still on the list.
Nevada and Wyoming have avoided the Razorbacks, while California schools Fresno State and San Diego State also have. There’s not much to say here, though the chances to play San Diego State might increase if they join the Pac-12 in the coming years.
