FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas football's 2023 schedule was released Tuesday, including SEC matchups and nonconference games. The Razorbacks' 2022 schedule was one of the nation's toughest.

Arkansas will play four consecutive games away from Razorback Stadium, beginning with its SEC opener against LSU on Sept. 23. It's the earliest the Razorbacks have played the Tigers.

The schedule features three nonconference matchups against unfamiliar teams. Arkansas opens the season against Western Carolina of the FCS at War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock. The Razorbacks haven't played in Little Rock since 2019.

The Razorbacks will also play Florida International for the first time in more than 15 years and will meet Kent State for the first time in program history. Arkansas also plays the second half of its home-and-home with BYU. The Cougars will be a member of the Big 12 in 2023.

As for cross-divisional SEC matchups, Arkansas continues its rivalry week game against Missouri in the regular season finale. The Razorbacks will travel to Florida to face the Gators, whom Arkansas last played in 2020. Florida won that game 63-35.
