— Arkansas' 2018-19 basketball schedule is nearly finalized after the Southeastern Conference released its full schedule of games Friday.

The Razorbacks open SEC play at Texas A&M on Jan. 5 and play their first conference home game on Jan. 9 against Florida. Arkansas plays six consecutive SEC games before breaking for its Big 12/SEC Challenge matchup at Texas Tech on Jan. 26.

Nine of the Razorbacks' 13 non-conference dates are known through schedule releases at other schools, and a 10th non-conference game against Western Kentucky has yet to have a date publicly announced. Other notable non-conference games include a neutral-site game against Texas on Nov. 9, Indiana at home on Nov. 18 and at Colorado State on Dec. 5.

Arkansas is expected to release its non-conference schedule sometime within the next month.
