The final edition of the Crimson & Cardinal Classic is officially set. Arkansas and Oklahoma will meet on Dec. 9 at the BOK Center in Tulsa as non-conference opponents for the last time. Razorback head coach Eric Musselman announced the news via Twitter (X) on Monday afternoon.

This is the third straight year that the Sooners and Razorbacks will meet in Tulsa. The two schools split the first two meetings of the Crimson & Cardinal Classic. Oklahoma won the inaugural matchup in 2021, 88-66, and Arkansas won last season, 88-78. Arkansas owns a 17-13 advantage over the Sooners in the all-time series, which dates back to 1938.

Oklahoma will officially join the SEC in 2024, meaning the two schools will be conference opponents going forward. Tickets for the final edition of this game will be available to Razorback Foundation members on Aug. 1 and the general public on Aug. 4.
