This week, the Arkansas Razorbacks announced their fall exhibition schedule that features two games.
First, on October 10, they will play the Little Rock Trojans at 7 p.m. EDT. Then, on October 11, they will play the Dallas Baptist Patriots at 2 p.m. EDT.
Both of these games will be played in Fayetteville at Baum-Walker Stadium.
The Little Rock Trojans had an underwhelming 2025 season. They finished 27-34 overall and were 8-16 in Ohio Valley Conference play.
However, a big-time run in the Ohio Valley Conference Tournament led to them winning the tournament championship. Thus, they made the NCAA Tournament for only the second time in their program’s history.
Dallas Baptist finished the season 41-18. They had a 21-6 record in Conference USA (C-USA) play. The Patriots won the C-USA regular season championship and made the NCAA Tournament for the 11th straight season.
Both Little Rock and Dallas Baptist were seeded in the Baton Rouge regional. Dallas Baptist got a win against the Rhode Island Rams. However, losses to LSU and Little Rock knocked them out of the tournament.
Little Rock won three games in the Baton Rouge regional over Rhode Island, LSU, and Little Rock. They made it to the regional final before being knocked out by LSU, who went on to win the 2025 national championship.
Little Rock played Arkansas twice at Baum-Walker Stadium this past season. The Trojans got shut out in both games. They were outscored 14-0 in the two games combined.
The Arkansas Razorbacks finished the 2025 season 50-15 overall. They were 20-10 in SEC play.
Arkansas made the NCAA Tournament and was the number three overall national seed. They would go on to get to the College World Series for the 12th time in their program’s history.
