The wait is finally over.

Arkansas’ three annual SEC opponents have leaked, and according to On3 Sports' Chris Low, the Razorbacks will face Missouri, Texas, and LSU every year for at least the next four seasons.

Arkansas football's three annual opponents

The Hogs managed to hang onto two of their most historic rivals in Texas and LSU. The Texas rivalry predates Arkansas’ SEC days, with decades of classic battles defining the Southwest Conference. Meanwhile, LSU and Arkansas have developed plenty of heat since the Hogs joined the SEC in 1992.

Then there’s Missouri. They have a unique cough forced cough rivalry. When the Tigers joined the conference, the Battle Line Rivalry was created out of thin air, and unfortunately, Missouri has dominated it ever since. In fact, all three have a serious advantage over Arkansas all-time. They have a 112-50-2 combined record against the Razorbacks.

The ones that got away

While it's no surprise the SEC picked those three for Arkansas, Arkansas will miss out on a few traditional matchups. Ole Miss has played the Razorbacks, who have had some insane games throughout history, including their matchup in week three of this season. They've played each other as much as any team in the SEC, too, but Arkansas still holds a winning record over the Rebels.

And for the first time since Texas A&M joined the conference, Arkansas and the Aggies won’t see each other every season.

The official list from the SEC will drop Tomorrow, Sept. 23, at 6:00 PM CST on SEC Network and ESPN2. It will also include the rest of the league opponents for the next four years.
