Here we break down the matchups in the Arkansas game this Saturday at Jordan-Hare Stadium as Auburn football tries to get win number five.

Auburn football is preparing for its next biggest game of the season as they face No. 17 Arkansas at Jordan-Hare Stadium this Saturday night.

The Razorbacks are coming off a huge win at home over Ole Miss that has made them a relevant team in the SEC West again.

Meanwhile, Auburn is coming off a bye week and with only one loss in the SEC they are still in the hunt for the SEC West title.

This series has been really tight throughout the years with Auburn holding a 13-11 advantage. They have split the series the past two years with Arkansas winning a four-overtime thriller at home last season.

With two SEC losses, and those coming against Texas A&M and Alabama, it would be hard for Arkansas to get back in the race for the West.

Because of that, I think this game means a lot more for Auburn as it keeps their hopes alive for this season, and legitimizes them as a real threat.

There is no doubt that this is a huge game for Auburn, and I’m glad they get it at home. The crowd at Jordan-Hare Stadium Saturday night will be a huge boost for the Tigers.

Now let’s take a look and see how these two teams match up against each other.
