Since joining the league in 1992, Arkansas' been on a quest to prove it not only belongs in the SEC, but can be an upper echelon team. One of the best ways to bolster the resume is to consistently beat up on the conference doormats like Kentucky. But that has been a sticking point for the Hogs.
The two programs have met six times with the Wildcats winning four of them.
The most famous match-up happened in 2003. Matt Jones and the Razorbacks beat UK 71-63 in seven overtimes, tied for the longest game in NCAA history.
But that's the last time Arkansas beat the Cats. The next meeting, in 2007, Houston Nutt's final season, the Wildcats beat up the Hogs 42-29 in Fayetteville.
Then the next year in Lexington, Bobby Petrino's first season, Arkansas coughed up a late lead thanks in part to a costly fumble by De'anthony Curtis and two touchdown connections from Mike Hartline to Randall Cobb.
Arkansas won the first game back in 1998 but the Wildcats own four of the next five, including a two game win streak.
The Razorbacks get Kentucky in Fayetteville this year but they're 1-2 at Razorback Stadium in the series.
