The 2019 Arkansas Razorbacks football team represented the University of Arkansas in the 2019 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The Razorbacks played their home games at Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium in Fayetteville, Arkansas, with one home game at War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock. Arkansas played as a member of the Western Division of the Southeastern Conference (SEC).

On November 10, 2019, a day after the Razorbacks' loss to Western Kentucky, second-year head coach Chad Morris was fired. He finished at Arkansas with a record of 4–18, going 0–14 in SEC play.[1][2] Tight ends coach Barry Lunney Jr. finished the season as interim head coach.[3]

The Razorbacks lost their last nine games of the season and finished the season on a 19-game losing streak against SEC opponents, dating back to the 2017 season.
