Fan‑First Scheduling
Arkansas football has released the kickoff times for the first three games of the 2026 season, marking the start of a new era under head coach Ryan Silverfield.
The Razorbacks will open the season at home against North Alabama on September 5, with a 3:15 p.m. kickoff that aims to accommodate local fans.
A week later, Arkansas travels to Utah for the first time in program history, facing the Utes on September 12 at 9:15 p.m. Central Time, a slot that will be televised on ESPN.
The third scheduled contest sees the Razorbacks back on home turf against Georgia on September 19, slated for an 11 a.m. start, a slot chosen to maximize viewership and attendance.
Silverfield said he wants game times that are best for the fans, and he is open to adjusting future slots based on feedback.
Kickoff times for the remainder of the schedule will be announced at a later date, giving the coaching staff flexibility to fine‑tune the calendar.
