Hogs’ kickoff time windows announced

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Kickoff time windows for Arkansas and Southeastern Conference controlled games have been set.

As part of the league’s new television rights deal with ESPN, the league has established kickoff time windows to allow teams and fans to know approximate start times for the entire season. Games will kick off within one of four windows known as Early, Afternoon, Night or Flex.

• Early – 11 a.m.-Noon CT
• Afternoon – 2:30-3:30 p.m. CT
• Night – 5-7 p.m. CT
• Flex – 2:30-7 p.m. CT

Game time windows will be converted to kickoff times six days prior to the game. Flex games will encompass the Afternoon and Night windows before being assigned a window 12 days prior to the game.

The Razorbacks knew game times and TV network designations for games against UAPB (Aug. 29 – 6:30 p.m. – ESPNU), at Oklahoma State (Sept. 7 – 11 a.m. – ABC) and UAB (Sept. 14 – 3:15 p.m. – SECN) and add a fourth known game time when rival Texas returns to Fayetteville for an 11 a.m. kickoff on either ABC or ESPN on Nov. 16. The Longhorns will make their second consecutive trip to Fayetteville after the Hogs won the previous meeting 40-21 in 2021.

The first of two Flex (2:30-7 p.m. CT) games on the Arkansas schedule comes at Auburn on Sept. 21 with the Hogs’ second Flex game coming at home against Tennessee on Oct. 5. The final Southwest Classic matchup at AT&T Stadium vs. Texas A&M is set to kick in the Afternoon window (2:30-3:30 p.m. CT). The Battle for the Golden Boot against LSU will happen during the Night window (5-7 p.m. CT) inside Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium on Oct. 19. The Razorbacks then have back-to-back weekends with games in the Early window (11 a.m.-Noon CT), first at Mississippi State on Oct. 26 before hosting Ole Miss on Nov. 2. The Hogs’ final home game of the season vs. Louisiana Tech will steam on SECN+ and ESPN+ with kickoff time yet to be determined. The Battle Line Rivalry will kick off in the Afternoon window (2:30-3:30 p.m.) at Missouri on Nov. 30.
