Projected seed: 5

Arkansas' body of work pairs eye‑catching victories in neutral and hostile settings with a handful of damaging road losses, which explains its placement. The Razorbacks claimed a marquee neutral win over Texas Tech and beat quality opponents like Louisville and Tennessee at home while showing they can win away at Oklahoma and at Mississippi. Those highs are tempered by rough losses at Auburn and at Georgia and by neutral setbacks to Duke and Houston and a tight defeat at Michigan State, which keep the resume short of elite. The remaining slate, highlighted by a home date with Kentucky, road tests at Alabama and Florida and a series of chances against Texas and Texas A&M, gives clear opportunities to climb or to confirm the committee’s current assessment.
