The Razorbacks quietly went 5-1 at home in 2014 only losing to Alabama while going 2-6 in SEC play.

Arkansas shows up at this position in the rankings due to the sheer amount of home games they have this season.

D.W.R. Razorback Stadium in Fayetteville will play host to Texas El Paso, Toledo, Texas Tech, Texas A&M, Auburn, UT Martin, Mississippi State and Missouri.

If the Razorback defense played like it did last season at home where they outscored opponents 231 – 51, Arkansas will have another successful season and might be able to squeak out more than two conference victories.

The defense may have the hardest time stopping the high scoring offenses of Auburn, Texas A&M,  Mississippi State and Missouri.  The toughest match-up for the Razorbacks outside of conference play in 2015 is Toledo. The Rockets like to score often and it should be a great battle between a great offense and great defense in week 2.
