FAYETTEVILLE — The Arkansas football team reached the open date on its schedule on a positive note, having shucked a 14-game SEC losing streak with a 31-21 road victory over Vanderbilt.
The Razorbacks stand at 3-4 overall, 1-3 in the SEC, under first-year coach Ryan Silverfield. They’ll resume action on Halloween night against Missouri (5-2, 2-2 SEC). The Tigers are also on an open date this weekend before a closing stretch that features games against Texas, Georgia, Kentucky and Oklahoma after facing the Razorbacks.
