This season will mark the first time Arkansas has played multiple charity exhibitions in the same season as well as the first time the Razorbacks have faced two Division 1 opponents in the preseason. Arkansas, of course, welcomes Kansas to Bud Walton Arena on Oct. 25.
Arkansas and TCU have a long history dating back to the Southwest Conference days. The Razorbacks hold a 105-38 all-time advantage and a 4-2 mark in neutral-site matchups.
TCU is coming off three consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances under head coach Jamie Dixon. The Horned Frogs are projected to finish 10th in the Big 12 this season, but are a strong candidate to exceed expectations with a transfer haul that includes the likes of Trazarien White, Frankie Collins and others.
