Two weeks ago, Arkansas athletic director Hunter Yurachek admitted an inconvenient truth. To show, Yurachek said that Arkansas is not set up to win a national championship in the current NIL model. Instead, he gave some lip service to being “competitive” in the SEC. Thus, that statement does not inspire a lot of confidence against the College Football lines. Especially when the Hogs face an opponent like the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. The Razorbacks will host the Fighting Irish on Saturday. Despite the comments of Yurachek, Arkansas may have enough for Notre Dame.
