Missouri at Arkansas

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (Interstat) — Arkansas looks to close a difficult season on a high note when it hosts a reeling Missouri squad in the regular-season finale for both teams on Saturday at Razorback Stadium.

The Razorbacks (2-9) enter as a slight favorite despite their record, with oddsmakers installing them at -2.5. The projection from Interstat, predicting a 31-22 Arkansas victory, adds another layer of intrigue to the rivalry matchup.

Missouri (7-4) has dropped three of its last four contests, including a 17-6 loss at Oklahoma last Saturday where the offense sputtered. Quarterback Beau Pribula passed for 231 yards in the defeat, but the Tigers’ ground game was held in check.

Conversely, Arkansas is coming off one of its best offensive showings in a 52-37 shootout loss at Texas. The Razorbacks amassed over 500 total yards, with a three-pronged quarterback attack of KJ Jackson, Taylen Green and running back Mike Washington Jr. providing sparks.

The Tigers have dominated the recent series, winning the last three meetings. Missouri’s potent offense, which scored 49 points against Mississippi State two weeks ago, will test an Arkansas defense that has consistently struggled to contain opponents.

The over/under for the contest is set at 55.5.
