Arkansas adds two non-conference opponents to 2025-26 schedule

The Arkansas Razorbacks men’s basketball team has added two more games to their 2025-26 non-conference schedule, per a report.
Arkansas will play host both Samford (Nov. 14) and Fresno State (Dec. 6) at Bud Walton Arena. That puts the Razorbacks’ current non-conference slate at the 13-games, which is the most they can schedule.
The Bulldogs went 22-11, 12-6 in the SoCon, with an NIT appearance under head coach Bucky McMillan in 2024-25, who left after the season to take the vacant job at Texas A&M. Former Lipscomb coach Lennie Acuff took over for McMillan.
Fresno State is coming off of a season to forget as the Bulldogs finished 6-26 with a Mountain West Conference record of 2-18 in their first season under Vance Walberg.
