The Razorbacks (12-18) could be in line for an automatic invitation to the WNIT if the Southeastern Conference receives nine bids to the NCAA Tournament. The WNIT selects each conference's best team that does not make the NCAA Tournament and Arkansas finished 10th in the SEC standings.
Postseason bids for both tournaments are scheduled to be announced Monday.
