Arkansas and Auburn, both looking for a win, meet Saturday at 11:45 a.m. on SEC Network
The Daily Springdale team
If you're watching college football Saturday morning, set the alarm. Arkansas (3-5, 1-4 SEC) visits Auburn (4-4, 2-4) at 11:45 a.m. on SEC Network from Jordan-Hare Stadium. It's a reunion of sorts: Auburn coach Alex Golesh was falsely rumored to be Arkansas' hire during the coaching search, and Ryan Silverfield is the coach who actually got the job.

“You watch this Arkansas team, they've gotten better every single week.”
