ARKANSAS VS. MISSOURI: HOW WE SEE IT

CLAY HENRY, HAWGS ILLUSTRATED It’s hard to measure what’s left in the emotional tank for the Razorbacks. It’s the last stand for quite a few, including quarterback Austin Allen. That could make this close, just like the Mississippi State game. But, Missouri seems to be rolling on an even keel, even with better defensive play. Missouri, 34-17

MATT JONES, WHOLE HOG SPORTS There are too many injuries to know what to expect from Arkansas and Missouri has been beating up on bad teams. Missouri, 42-24

BART POHLMAN, SPORTS TALK WITH BO Arkansas hung in there with Mississippi State despite not playing well. With injuries mounting and nothing left to play for, it’s hard to see the Hogs slowing down the prolific Tigers on offense. Missouri, 38-20

TOMMY CRAFT, ESPN ARKANSAS Missouri has been one of the most improved teams in the 2017 season. The offense is averaging close to 500 yards. The Hogs played better defense the last two weeks. That trend will continue. Arkansas, 44-42

BO MATTINGLY, SPORTS TALK WITH BO Missouri has been putting up a lot of points and it’ll be tough for Arkansas in an emotionally draining environment. Missouri, 38-17

DUDLEY E. DAWSON, HAWGS ILLUSTRATED It looked earlier in the season that this might be a meaningless regular-season finale, but that was before Missouri turned its season around with five straight wins and clinched a bowl game. Missouri, 42-30

HARRY KING, HAWGS ILLUSTRATED The Tigers are bowl-eligible after winning five straight and Arkansas’ secondary is vulnerable to big plays by quarterback Drew Lock. Missouri, 38-24

CHIP SOUZA, NWA DEMOCRAT-GAZETTE Missouri has been a much-improved team over the second half of the season, while Arkansas has gone in the opposite direction. But something tells me the Razorbacks will have extra incentive to close this season with a win at home. Call it a hunch, or maybe my gut feeling is that extra helping of dressing. But … Arkansas, 38-35
