Razorback Fans Spotlight...
The Arkansas Razorbacks enter the 2026 NCAA March Madness Tournament as No.4 seed team in the West. The Razorbacks finished the season with a 26 - 8 record and secured a spot in the NCAA tournament.
If the Razorbacks win against Hawaii, they will advance to Round of 32 and face the winner of the game between No. 5 Wisconsin and No. 12 High Point. That second-round game would then take place on Saturday, March 21, 2026.
The Razorbacks are tough and knows how to step up and win! Thanks Coach Cal and team for bringing back the Razorback fire.
