Facing the Tigers in Baton Rouge is a daunting task for any team, but the Razorbacks may actually already have a blueprint to follow for Game 1 of the Arkansas vs LSU series.
Just like the last time they met at Alex Box Stadium, it is yet another top-5 showdown between the two teams, with the opener scheduled for 6:30 p.m. CT Friday.
That’s not the only similarity between this weekend’s matchup and the one played two years ago.
Back in 2023, they met in Week 2 of SEC play – at which point Paul Skenes had already established himself as the best pitcher in the country.
