FAYETTEVILLE -- The Arkansas Razorbacks are a team in need of a heated rival.
The Razorbacks have three trophy games -- against Texas A&M, LSU and Missouri -- and lots of other rivals in the SEC, but they do not have a standout foe in which both fan bases can't wait to hate, 365 days a year.
Returning to contention in the SEC will help in that regard, fans and college football analysts alike agree.
In the meantime, tonight's Battle for the Golden Boot against No. 7 LSU has to serve as the circled game for the struggling Razorbacks.
