The Auburn Tigers (2-1) host the Arkansas Razorbacks (2-1) on Saturday afternoon. Both schools are part of the SEC conference, so this matchup has larger implications.

Arkansas triumphed over UAB last week, winning 37-27. QB Tayler Green struggled, but RB Ja’Quinden Jackson totaled 147 rushing yards and one TD.
Will Auburn protect their home field, or will Arkansas notch their first road win of the year?
